There are 50 spots, with 15 held. The Hold Back is the number of slots we are reserving for late registering Rookies or Veteran teams stumbling with getting PO's in place for registration. Typically all Regional's hold back at least 10 spots. We decided to hold back a few more based on our location and the other scheduled events.
