What are typical/standard rules for these tournaments?

Each tourney will be different. You just have to wait until that tourney comes up and the flyer is posted. All of the rules are normally posted on the flyers....

The flyers are up. (see links in the schedule)

The detailed rules are not up yet. I'll have to upload them. sorry about that! I'll let you know when they're online. :)

:popcorn: Were waiting.......:biggrin:

Can teams have more than 3 guys in the boat......as long as they only have 3 shooters?

Yes, you can have non-shooting guests on your boat. However, if you have more than 3 people on board, you can only take 3 bows with you.

Are there any tournaments for people without boats?
