As you can see CVNS.org has a new look!

I am now running the site on the WordPress platform to hopefully make it easier to maintain and update.

There are a couple of features still missing such as the spares list and tournament standings. I hope to have those up and running in a few weeks.

Some of the new features include: a search box at the top, a commenting system so you can now comment on posts, and easily find posts by category.

See you in September!

Due to overwhelming interest in our organization this year, we have had to consistently turn teams away from registering.  Because we love our sport and want it to grow, we want to accommodate as many teams as possible.  So, CVNS is planning on introducing some exciting changes for next year!

As of September, 2008, CVNS will run 4 divisions.  These will be Rec, Super Rec B, Super Rec A and Competitive, with some rotation within Super Rec A and B divisions.  With this change we will be able to accommodate 40 teams.

All of this will depend on the amount of interest generated and the number of teams who have confirmed their spot through registration.  We will begin taking cheques for next year as of March, 2008, so get your registration cheques for the year in early and encourage your friends to put together a team and do the same!

This year it is first come first serve. Please send your checks to reserve your spot.  These are the teams that are registered thus far:

Rec:

Super rec A
Networx
Sweet Diddy

Lucky 7
