We cannot make any guarantees but will strive to honor your requests. |
| I am a local team who does not require housing. Do I still need to book hotel rooms to be in the tournament? No. Only the teams who require housing during their participation in the tournament, must use the hotels that are listed on the www,veteransinvitational.com web site as part of their acceptance. ALL teams will be asked to fill out a hotel form verfying where they are staying for the event. |
| Will our team have a choice in hotels? We have set up our housing service so that you will have a choice, based on availability. The earlier your team makes its reservation, the greater the choice will be. As hotels fill, your choices may be limited. All hotels are within 10 to 20 minute drive of all the tournament sites. |
