($20 Challenge Fee is non-refundable)

PLAYER PROFILE

Once your team manager and/or coach submits their team roster, a player profile will be created for every player.
Once the profile is created, the player can pay online their $75 registration fee for the 2021 MPAA Turkey Ball tournament.  A date will be arranged with your team manager/coach for one of our PBU Canada 
representatives to come and take a profile picture to complete the PBU Canada profile.

DOUBLE DIPPING

YES, players can play on multiple teams and multiple divisions.  Just as long the player knows they are responsible for the player fee for each team.  As well the player must start and finish a game with the same team.  They are not permitted to start a game with one team and leave half way through to play for another team.
