You can register online here (scroll down). Once you have registered, please be
prepared to come before the first round to check in and pay the registration
fees onsite. Pre-Registration here will hold the pre-registration fee rate for
you.
Note that this constitutes your registration for the KW Winter
Open. If the registered player does not check in 1/2 hour before first game
(without prior arrangements), he/she will not be paired.
Please notify us of any inability to attend to avoid these unfortunate
circumstances at:
