In order to offer as many competitions from the planned schedule as possible until the COVID-19 situation has completely eased, the following philosophy will be employed at each AGA-sponsored event:
- The AGA will be bound by the Host Facility’s mandates for social distancing.
- One week in advance of each event, any diversions from normal competition rules will be posted to the website.
- Any players who wish to withdraw at that time will receive a full refund.
