Volunteer Deposit (NEW for 2026)

Our tournaments thrive because of the incredible support from our families! To keep things running smoothly and create the best experience for our players, we’re asking each family to provide a $100.00 refundable deposit (check) for the 2026 season. When you or a family member volunteers at both of our tournaments, your check will be returned at the end of the season as a thank-you for your help. If volunteer requirements aren’t met, the deposit will be retained to support future events. Together, we can make every tournament a success!

To support NWC-hosted tournaments, each player/family will be required to submit a $100.00 refundable volunteer deposit. (two tournaments)

How it works:

Deposit will be collected and deposited at the start of the season
Each family will complete assigned tournament volunteer responsibilities
Deposit will be fully refunded once requirements are met
Refunds issued within 30 days of completion or by July 12, 2026
