There are four divisions, the main division is for players 3d and up, then divisions A through C are for progressively lower-ranked players. Anyone can play, provided you first obtain a firm Pandanet ranking. Prizes are given in all divisions. In addition, all players who finish the first round regardless of results are placed in a lottery for several very nice prizes courtesy of SportAccord. |
