HOW IT WORKS
HOW IT WORKS
The UTSS hosts 3 sanctioned tournaments throughout the year. Where each runs separate from one another, they are also linked through a season series. In addition to medals being awarded for top 3 placings, points are also earned and compiled to produce standings for individual categories and the Super Crown club championship. Award winners are announced and presented with trophies at the end of the Community Challenge.
