THE ROCHESTER OPEN IS ALMOST HERE

T-minus 4 days until the 6th annual Rochester Open kicks-off!!

UPDATE ON TONIGHT'S SCHEDULE

GVDA members. We are postponing tonight's matches. Due to poor road conditions across the region which are only supposed to get worse we believe it is more important to keep people safe. If you were scheduled to play at home tonight please notify your tavern. IMPORTANT NOTE: Tonight's matches will be made up at the end of the season on 4/18 and will replace the wildcard playoff week. The schedule on the website will be updated to reflect this change. Playoffs will now begin on 4/25 and will consist of the top 4 teams.

WEATHER AND TONIGHT'S SCHEDULE

Mother nature is sure not being kind. We will be monitoring the weather and road conditions throughout the day. We will make a decision on tonight's matches this afternoon. Keep an eye on the website blog as well as Facebook for updates.
