***** Adam Fields will NOT be there******

THIS IS THE QUALIFIER EVENT FOR CBS SPORTS' ALT GAME NATIONALS IN THE SPRING!
...

The competition will be held in downtown Shreveport at Riverveiw Park on the Red River. There will be food vendors, energy drinks, and alcohol vendors. The Shreveport Jeep Club will be out showing their rides all day and there is also a Zombie Run that morning! There will be local advertising so we are expecting a strong turnout for spectators. You won't want to miss the biggest collegiate event of the fall!

Format will be the same format used in the LCWT. So bring everyone that you have. But, for the USA Regional Scores, the top 4 guys from your team, top 2 girls, and top skater will be your Regional team. Everyone is still welcome to ride though. LCWT scores will be posted the day of the event and USA regional scores will be posted Sunday night.

There will also be one open division for non collegiate riders. You must be at least a advanced rider to participate in this division. And you must have USA Waterski insurance! There is a cash prize for the overall winner of this division and college riders are welcome to ride in this division for an additional 10 dollar fee. Non collegiate riders must pay a 20 dollar entry fee.

We are planning after parties with Fatty Arbuckles in the Red River District (still downtown). They are providing the DJ for the competition. It is within walking distance of the hotel and event site.

Live music will be: Engine
Gascatt
Lackadaisies
DJ Quickie Mart

The team entry fee for this event will be $150 and individual riders fee will be $20. That also get your team into any of the other 3 LCWT events this fall and spring.

The host hotel is the Holiday Inn Downtown. Rooms are 99 a night a we do have a block of 30 rooms set up. ****** Rooms are running out fast and the block will expire on the 12th!******
