NAPA OF CENTRAL MISSOURI 2018 TOP SHARK TOURNAMENT
NAPA of Central Missouri holds a FREE ENTRY, LOCAL tournament between Columbia, Jefferson City, Moberly, and Troy each year. Next year there will be even more cities participating. The tournament is known as the Top Shark Tournament.
Each player pays $1 a week dues to fund the tournament. This tournament is FREE entry unless the leagues wants to add to the payouts. The more teams, the more money in payouts. It is to your benefit to recruit more players into NAPA so the payouts can be the highest they can be.
This is to reward the players who play in NAPA and not to reward those players that only play one season and quit. To qualify for this tournament you MUST play at least FIVE matches a season and TWO out of THREE seasons in NAPA.
