We will communicate specific age groups and locations/times prior once registration numbers are finalized.
We still remain subject to COVID-19 restrictions and precautions. The Techniplex has provided its facility requirements for your review and familiarity (attached). Please ensure that you and your player review this documentment and become familiar with them.
