The USFA Board of Directors voted to establish a new tournament series to be known as the National Open Circuit. It is a new competitive series established by the USFA Board of Directors to help expand the reliable strength of larger regional or super-regional events below the Division I NAC level both as developmental paths for athletes and to guarantee level-appropriate tournaments for those athletes not yet ready to consistently compete and succeed at the Division I level. It is made up of strong, locally run tournaments across the nation. The Remenyik Open was chosen to be the lead-off event for the new NOC based upon its historical strength and excellent tournament operations. For complete details on the NOC, see the new website: http://usfanoc.askfred.net. AS PART OF THIS WE CAN NO LONGER HAVE MIXED EVENTS.NOTE, TOO, THAT THE TOP 4 IN EACH EVENT WILL QUALIFY FOR DIV 1A.
