It's the most wonderful time of the year! Spooky season is upon us, and we're excited to hold the first ever women's pinball tournament in Port Clinton, Ohio!

Finals will be PAPA style group elimination, 3 games per round. 4/2/1/0 scoring. The top seed gets a choice of game or position. Game selection for each finals round must have at least 1 modern and 1 classic.
