Registration opens on Wednesday, March 13 at 12 PM Pacific. We will reserve 16 spots for out of town teams and 8 spots for home teams (reciprocal members are considered SFBACC members). We will accept individual registrations and will do our best to match you with a team. An out of town team must have at least 2 non-SFBACC members.
