Cost for entry is $15.00. Enough equipment for the tournament to take place must be volunteered by participants: consoles/controllers/games.

There will be no cost reduction for volunteering equipment. The only way these tourneys can continue to take place is if participants are willing to volunteer their equipment for tournament usage.  The equipment goes back home with you at the end of the tourney.
