Tournaments
Generally run over a weekend, tournaments are a great way to get competitive games in a friendly social atmosphere. You get a minimum of three matches over the weekend, so even if you lose a couple you may be in line to get a prize!
Types of tournaments

Graded. These are restricted to certain grades. e.g B grade tournament is for B grade players and below. D-J tournament is for players between D & J grade.
Age Group. Only players within certain ages groups are eligible. e.g Masters or Juniors. Sometimes these tournaments are divided up into grade, and sometimes they are divided up into age groups.

Tournaments normally cost between $20-$40 per person for a whole weekend of fun. The cost often includes a supper, or special event.
