D.K. Hoopsters FAQ
What is the cost to enter a D.K. Hoopsters tournament?
Entry fees vary according to the format of a tournament and the type of game being played (1 on 1, 3 on 3, 4 on 4, or 5 on 5). Most tournaments have a lower registration fee for early sign-ups. The info page on each tournament lists prices and early bird discounts.
What is the refund policy?
Entry fees are non-refundable before or after the registration deadline. A cancellation by you before the entry deadline will result in your being granted a credit for use in an alternate tournament. Otherwise, no credits or refunds will be granted. This includes, but is not limited to, cancellations arising from inclement weather, personal scheduling conflicts and inability to make a tournament. In case of inclement weather, the Event Director reserves the right to reduce the number of scheduled games and/or the time of games. If you have questions about this, feel free to contact us at (505) 304-1954.
How do you match up different age groups?
Divisions for youth are based on the grade level of the most advanced player on a team. For example, a team with two fourth-gradesrs and one fifth-grader would play in the division with fifth graders. During the summer, a player's grade is based on the last grade completed, not the future grade level.
Divisions for adults are based on the age of the youngest player (must be at least 18). For example, a team with a 25-year-old and two 30-year-olds would play in the 27 and up division.
Can I change my roster after I am registered?
Roster changes for youth tournaments can only be made at the pre-event meeting (see below).
For special weekend events you can adjust your roster before your first official game. Roster changes must be completed either at the pre-event check-in or at the headquarters tent before your first game.
Roster changes cannot be made online. All new players must complete a player change form prior to their first game; otherwise, the team will forfeit games played with the non-registered player prior to the form being completed. Roster change forms are available on the web site or at the headquarters tent during pre-event check-in.
When do we get our schedule?
Schedules will be posted online. Teams can also pick up their schedules during the mandatory pre-event meeting for youth tournaments.
What is the weather policy?
Show up for your first game as scheduled! The Event Director will make the call on site if conditions warrant postponing games until the weather lets up. Any delays will be posted on our website (www.dkhoopsters.com). **Show up for your first game as scheduled! **
Play will continue through inclement weather as much as possible. If it's necessary to stop play, games will be postponed in 30 min. increments until conditions are suitable to resume play. It's very important that all teams remain close to the event site so that games may resume in a timely manner once the weather has improved!
Can I bring my own cooler and tent?
Yes, players are allowed to bring coolers on-site unless otherwise noted on the event page due to facility restrictions. In addition, no alcoholic beverages are allowed on site. Please note all coolers may be searched upon entry per venue regulations. You may bring your own shade tent as long as it measures 10’ x 10’ or less and does not feature any offensive graphics. All tents and personal belongings must be removed at the end of play each day. The tournament and their employees are not responsible for any loss or theft.
How about pets?
No pets allowed, please leave them at home.
Will I have to pay for parking?
Some venues will charge for parking. The facility determines parking fees, not D.K. Hoopsters. If there is a charge for parking, it will be noted on the event page for that particular event.
