Brandy, I will gladly have a Women's class and even offer a cash prize if you can recruit enough women to show up. I have tried numerous times in the past and have always brought those trophies home. Like I said, if you can convince enough, hell, I'll even say get me six women to fill a class and I will personally give the winner $100 out of my own pocket. Plus if the winner actually had to fly in to CT, I'll make it $200 out of my pocket. (Hint Hint)

Any prize money Pete? I checked flights and they are about 350 round trip. I need to find a way to mitigate the damage.

There is currently no prize money available at this point because it is a first go round for this event and its organizers. Future events with them will be awarding cash prizes per my conversation with the event director. Travis is currently working on some really nice awards with his sponsors for this years event. I can look into making your flight a little more affordable. Call me with your airport info and I will see what I can work out.

TopRoll was never a part of the event that you could enter. We just hosted the championship matches. Sorry for the confusion with that. We are working on some things for this one.
