In this forum, we encourage all players to post reports about their experiences at WBO Beyblade Tournaments.
What about unofficial, TAKARA-TOMY, or Hasbro events?
Reports about events not affiliated with the WBO (ex. events run by TAKARA-TOMY, Hasbro, other unofficial fan-run events) should not be posted in this forum. Instead, please post about them in the Beyblade General Forum.

Our hope with this forum is that all Organizers and tournament players will feel more encouraged to dive into and discuss what’s happening at WBO events around the world and that it’ll ultimately bring us all just a little bit closer together.
