Hey everyone I was curious as to how places may get determined on where to hold competitions. I know many people that are big fans and would make a good turn out if one were to be held at least close to my hometown.

Where a tournament is held is usually based on where there are people who are willing to do the legwork to organize and run one. What is your hometown?

Brantford. Ontario. I thought even places like London. Or the last one in Woodstock was nice.

Over the next four months the currently-scheduled tournaments are in the eastern or northern parts of the province. I think there is room for at least one tournament in your neck of the woods between now and the Provincial Championships in Scarborough on November 8th. It will depend on if someone decides to organize one.
Do you have any interest in organizing one yourself? It's not too much work, and I could put you in touch with some possible referees. Send me an email if you'd like (eroussin@rogers.com).

Well ya I know a guy that has his own venue / bar here and he's very interested. Would I be able to forward your email to him so he could first hand get the info for him to get going?

Sounds perfect. I wouldn't know where to start to be honest. So having some local guidance / assistance would be key.

Hey Ryan ... I'll help out, since I'm in Hamilton. But I'm even less experience than you are, so maybe we'll have to get Tyler to pitch in. LOL
