I just checked the website today and noticed they updated the information about the tournament and found this. I think it makes it a lot more interesting with giving $2000 to the first place team. Also, apparently they listened to the complaints about no women classes being available and added 4 of them. I think this should add a lot to the tournament. Especially with the prospect of $400 extra per person on the 1st place team, and the requirement that the participation of one of the 5 members being a female.
INDIVIDUAL MEN’S COMPETITION
The tournament will consist of 8 individual Men’s classes (same as Columbus)
Individual prize money will be paid to the top 4 Men’s and 4 Women’s finalists in each class (same amount as top 4 in Columbus – 2000 600 300 200)
The top 8 Men’s individuals in each class will qualify for the WAL Championship in December

TEAM COMPETITION
One of the most compelling characteristics of the sport is the concept of TEAM. Many of you train together everyday, are fierce rivals during a competition then do it all over again. The WAL will celebrate this team concept at the Las Vegas Event by adding a team competition in addition to the individual competition.
