Fall Qilin (B/BB)
September 12th, 2026
We’re excited to announce another Qilin Tournament this spring! To help maintain a competitive and balanced environment, this event will enforce NAGVA ratings — with a maximum of 3 BB players allowed on the court at a time.*
We will still be following NAGVA rating standards PRE Austin SUMMER BASH 2026.
We know they have updated their standards since and will review for future 4Q tournaments.
Players rated as “B” will be required to wear a red wristband and will be monitored to ensure that they are playing at the proper level.
Captains and free agents can sign up using the “Register Here” button below.
To help keep the tournament running smoothly, all teams will submit a $75 reffing deposit. The deposit will be fully refunded once the team completes their assigned reffing responsibilities during the event.
*Players may request a downrate due to injury or playing as a different position.
