(tournament director). The third Annual Hollyburn Winter Classic moved
to new dates and with a different format. The tournament was
divided into two weekends (similar to the nationals), Feb. 16-19 and
Feb. 23-26. This allowed more capacity and ensured all players have an opportunity to play.
Players had to play in their correct age category, but some were
permitted to play in two age categories if capacity allowed.
