* BPA should have the above information on file after you participate in your first tournament. 
Although we would all like to think that we don’t make mistakes, sometimes it happens. BPA/NSA must have this information on hand
BEFORE YOU MAY PARTICIPATE, so, if you always have an extra copy to leave at the tournament site,
it will help us in case we temporarily misplace any of your paperwork.

Bring to each tournament:
BIRTH CERTIFICATES / DRIVER’S LICENSES / STATE PHOTO ID

Your Manager/Coach is responsible for having a copy of each player’s
Birth Certificate or Driver’s License/State Photo ID on hand at each tournament.

BPA does NOT need copies of Birth Certificates/Driver’s Licenses/State Photo ID.
The Manager/Coach should have them on hand in case of protest.
