Hello everyone,
We have some announcements to make about the upcoming $6000 Massachusetts State Championships, being held this September 10-12 at the Holiday Inn in Somerville.
First off, due to circumstances beyond our control, we are unable to get a full shipment of 3 man goalie tables to Boston in time for the tournament. Due to the popularity of the 3 man goalie models in other parts of the country, only 3-4 tables were available for our use in the US, and a new shipment would not make it in time for the tournament.
After discussions with the Fireball team, we have decided it is better to have one type of table than have half and half, so the tournament will be run on ten 1 man goalie tables.
In reflection of this change, as a show of good faith to the players, we are dropping the price of tables for sale at MA States to $675. Please also contact me about potential further discounts. I believe this is the lowest advertised price at any tournament. In addition, for a price TBD, players at MA State may make advanced reservations for the updated, new edition 3 man goalie tables which will be on sale at the Fireball US Open in Maryland.
I have heard from a lot of different areas in the Northeast who are sending a group, so this is shaping up to be a great tournament! I hope this doesn't change your plans.
Second, for local players - the tables are on their way right now and will be here in advance of the tournament. The first batch is expected to arrive next Tuesday. Please message me about possibly getting a preview. I will try to have a table or two set up at my house once they arrive before the tournament. If someone with a truck or SUV wants to help me move them from the freight dock they will get my undying gratitude and a first look at the tables
Third, please see the link below to our college events facebook group and flier. If you know any unrated college players that may be interested, please let them know! Entry is not restricted to Boston area colleges.

Lastly, the hotel reservation deadline is August 26th (Today.) The hotel will honor the group rate after this date, but our room block will be released and travel to Boston is fairly popular in the Fall, so please book your rooms today if you are planning on attending!
