**THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND:**
This is a public venue and it will be open to customers who are not playing in the tournament. Therefore, groups may have to wait for their assigned machine to free up if someone is playing it. Also be aware you may have people playing next to you from time to time.

These machines are played daily and just like any on-location machine, there likely will be some that don’t play 100% perfectly. As is typical, we will remove any machine having issues prior to and during a match if it is a major malfunction. The TD will make rulings in accordance with IFPA rules regarding both minor and major malfunctions.

Games will NOT be modified physically (like removing rubbers, etc. to make them harder) although games that have a Competition Mode setting may be enabled. Tilts may be adjusted for the finals. Basically, for most games we will “play it as it lies” as they say.

The Silverball is a family-friendly facility. Children are encouraged to play in the tournament when accompanied by an adult.

**FOOD & DRINK OPTIONS:**
There's food and drink options including a bar

**ADDRESS & PARKING:**
19 NE 3rd Ave, Delray Beach, FL 33483

While parking is free and the lot is big at the Silverball, it fills up fast. Once it does, there is paid street parking, garages and lots in the surrounding area. Since Silverball is opening early to accommodate the tournament, we anticipate ample spots to be available especially the earlier you arrive. The venue officially opens at 12 noon which is our tournament start time even though tournament players may enter starting at 11:00 am. Late entries may receive a score of 1 on games missed.

**GAME LIST:**
Most of the games at Silverball are potentially included for tournament play.
