Collegiate Tour
About:
The goal for our Collegiate Division is to provide an affordable tournament outlet for collegiate players in the off season months. The Collegiate Divisions will be competing for gift cards/certificates. Most Collegiate Division events will be in conjunction with a junior event, meaning college players will be at the same venue with junior players.
