Does date-of-birth verification information have to be sent as part of the pre-tournament paper work?
Ans. The submission of player date-of-birth verification information is optional as part of the pre-tournament paper work. However, if this information is NOT provided as part of the pre-tournament paper work the team check-in process will take much longer. If this information is provided early as part of the pre-tournament paper work it must be in the Metro St. Louis ASA office not later than Wednesday, 26 July 2006.
