Tournament Refund Policy

It is the intent of FBSA to play each tournament to its final conclusion.  However, due to circumstance beyond our control, either man-made or an act of God, a tournament may have to be shortened, postponed or cancelled.

Before any tournament is officially cancelled, every opportunity will be made to reschedule or resume play at the first opportunity, as dictated by management, local government, local league play and/or sanctioning body.  We will post all tournament updates on our website, including any cancellation or modifications.

In the event a tournament must be cancelled or rescheduled and a team can not attend, it will be our policy to follow the refund policy of the sanctioning body unless otherwise stated in the tournament rules.

In the event a tournament is rescheduled and your team can not participate, please notify our staff as soon as possible requesting the appropriate refund.  Any team withdrawing from a tournament will not be eligible for any awards such as tournament berths, trophies, etc.

Full refund if withdrawal occurs more than 30 days in advance.  No refund will be issued for any team that withdraws from the tournament after the Friday preceding the tournament.
