World Beyblade Organization by Fighting Spirits Inc.

Im a teen in Hillsborough, if that helps lol

Also want to make it clear the check-in time will end at 11:30 am for the tournament since I would really like to start the tournament at 12 pm.

As NJ Regionals are nearing, I would like to remind everyone who is registered several important things about the BWC NJ Regionals. This is one of the most important tournaments being hosted this year, so the room for flexibility on my part is a bit limited. So everyone please make sure that you have all the legal equipment and Beyblades needed for Burst Standard format with a deck of 3 beys with no repeating parts. Please make sure your stuff is either TT or Hasbro in which no knockoffs or fakes are allowed to be used. Please don't mix TT layers with Hasbro drivers and Hasbro Layers with TT drivers. Please don't expect other people to allow you to borrow parts for the regional if you only have fakes/knock-offs.

I am also gonna be strict with who arrives before or after check-in, if you are gonna be more than 30 minutes late for the regional whether it be weather or traffic, you will have to be dropped from the tournament to ensure that the tournament will happen by schedule due to a large number of participants. If you know you are gonna be late to the event after 12pm or not be able to attend, please message me by 9 AM through PMs or contact WBO staff to pass the message to me in which depending on how late you are, I will hold off your match if possible, but it's not guaranteed.

If you are unsure if you have fake or knock-off beyblades, please contact WBO staff or me so you can avoid coming to the regional and not being able to play.

I will also remind everyone who is registered and will be participating in the event that the 1st place and 2nd place prizes are non-negotiable nor can they be transferred to another person in the event if you cannot attend the BWC in Orlando, Florida on June 23-25th. I understand this may be a bit frustrating, but the point of the regional tournament is to find out the best of the best from NJ and hopefully have them represent us in Florida if they are able to attend. I can't stress the importance of this regional so please make sure you have come prepared to be able to stay for the whole event. If you know you have to leave by a certain time, please know that any matches that you haven't played in either first stage or final stage will be counted as losses for your Beyrank. I am aware this seems very unfair, but these are the WBO rules and they must be followed at our own expense.

I have a question, what format tournament is this? Is it Swiss?

It is Swiss format.

Unfortunately I will not be able to attend. I'm just posting this so someone can see that a spot is open for them to take. Mr. Memes has been doing a great job with the New Jersey community so far so I hope someone else takes the place to have some fun out there. Good luck everyone, and enjoy!

Hello . 

We are also from CT. Have you  attended a tournament before ? I welcome any information you have .

Hey, nope I unfortunately haven't. It's hard to find one around here.

This event is gonna be poggers

As there is almost one week left before the NJ BWC Regionals, I am gonna post one final announcement for all of the players and parents coming to the regional. Please only come if you are able to stay for the majority of the event. I am aware there are a lot of participants traveling from outside of NJ so I am going to have to be strict with the check-in process so if you arrive more than 30 minutes after check-in ends at 11:30 am, you will be dropped from the tournament so it can be run on schedule. Please plan your travels ahead of time, but if you can't make it before 11:30am preferably, please let me or the WBO staff know by contacting us through the website.

I will also like to remind everyone for the final time to make sure you have a deck of 3 beys with no repeating parts and that they are either officially TT or Hasbro. Please don't mix TT layers with Hasbro drivers and vice versa. If you don't have enough parts for pick 3, choose 1, I will highly suggest you make sure to get them before the tournament as I cannot guarantee other players will lend out parts and made it clear that I won't be lending out parts to any players due to a large number of participants in regionals.

For people that aren't registered for the event, PLEASE DON'T COME if you are expecting to be accepted at registration last minute due to people not coming. I already had to deal with this at the previous tournament I hosted in which accepting a player last minute forced me to do a bracket reset which pushed the tournament to last later than usual. The recommendation of being able to come and to stay for the whole event is due to the same player having to leave the tournament without my knowledge which made processing the matches take longer than usual. I cannot highly stress this enough, but this is one of the most important tournaments in NJ and I would prefer the experience for everyone including myself to be positive.

For all parents and players that will be attending the tournament, please make sure you or your child have legal WBO equipment for the tournament and if you aren't sure that it's legal for tournament play, please check the WBO Burst Rule Guide on how to spot if you have fake or knockoff beyblades. Please feel free to contact me or WBO staff with any questions you have about the tournament. Most importantly, if you know you are gonna be 30 minutes or later after check-in ends at 11:30 am, you will have to be dropped from the tournament or contact me or WBO staff on the day of the tournament regarding travel delays or if you won't be able to attend the tournament in which you will be removed from the player's list.

I hope to see a lot of great players here and hopefully have fun at the tournament.

Unfortunately, I'm not in the tournament but I am looking forward to coming and meeting you all and battling some other bladers in free play this weekend.
See you all soon!

See ya there!

Hello everyone, I would like to make an important announcement regarding the tournament. Due to the upcoming cross-country storm in which it will be expected to rain all day on March 25th in NJ, the venue of the tournament will be moved to a VFW Hall located at 300 Belgrove Drive Kearny, NJ. I was able to get an indoor venue last minute to account for the weather concerns brought to me by the other participants coming to the tournament two weeks beforehand.

That being said, I will charge a small entry fee of $5 for the tournament to go into venue fees. I apologize for making these changes last minute, especially regarding the venue fee. It was never originally in my plan to have a venue fee, but given the circumstances of the cross-country storm, I spent the last two weeks before the regionals to find a backup indoor venue which included checking out two game stores such as Side Scrollers in East Rutherford and Final Turn Gaming in Clifton and both the Belleville Public Library and Kearny Public Library. The reason why I didn't go with the game stores is due to the limited capacity in which I would have to lower the participant cap significantly and the public libraries would have required everyone to be at the venue earlier due to their policy of having to run the event during its operating hours only. This was also the only way to keep the tournament from being cancelled.

I will try my hardest to avoid having to make such last-minute changes and will try my best to plan all future venues for my tournaments accordingly.

Just to confirm we will be using the basic beyblade stadium not the Db one?

We will be using the Burst Standard stadium for the tournament.

My last comment before the tournament. I hope to have good matches and possible trading with all of you! See you there

As there is only one day left before the regionals, let it be known that I will NOT accept any last-minute entrants after 11:30 am when check-in ends. I have gotten messages from people if they could be on standby if someone is unable to attend the regionals last minute, but I will not allow it unless people end up dropping by before 11:30 am. However, PLEASE DO NOT COME TO THE TOURNAMENT for the expectation of you being able to take someone else's spot if they drop out last minute. You are free to spectate the tournament, but please do not come just expect a spot to open up for you. The last tournament I hosted forced me to do a bracket reset because I decided to accept someone last minute and it delayed the tournament significantly due to factors out of my control.

Good luck to all who are going! Hope I make top 2!

As a final reminder for parents and bladers attending the event, please make note of the changes that have happened this week. The event will be hosted at VFW Post #1302 at 300 Belgrove Drive, Kearny, NJ 07032 not at Belleville Park in Belleville, NJ due to the rain from the cross-country storm on March 25th. The venue fee only applies to participants in the tournament so parents and spectators don't have to pay it.

Also for spectators, please do not try to enter the event last minute after check-in ends at 11:30am tomorrow. I would prefer to keep everything organized and run on a consistent schedule.

For parents, if you know that your child won't be able to travel to the event due to illness, traffic delays, and other important reasons, please contact me or the WBO staff in which the affected participant will be taken off the participant list. Also, make sure to bring food or drinks with you if you are able to stay for the entire event as participants are not allowed to leave the venue during the tournament and it would force me to put in the affected player's upcoming matches as losses. There is a shopping plaza on Passaic Avenue near the venue with plenty of food options along with a convenience store located on the same block as the venue if anyone needs to get any snacks/drinks.

For players, make sure to have all appropriate equipment for the tournament on you as I will not be lending out parts for everyone that is missing a bey in their deck. While you are allowed to trade or ask other players to borrow parts, please make note that not everyone is guaranteed to lend you something that you need for the tournament.

I hope to see everyone there and that this tournament will be fun for everyone.

I'm on my way to the tournament, good luck to all!
