For all events, teams must have 4, 5, or 6 members, all of whom are USBF members who have paid dues for 2027 and have signed the 2025 USBF Competitor's Agreement that specifies the IBA instead of the AAA as the forum for arbitration (if you signed in 2025 or 2026, you don't need to sign again).
For the Mixed USBC, each team must have at least 2 male players and 2 female players.
Closing Dates and Links to entry form (You must be logged in to the USBF website to enter)

If fewer than 16 teams are entered on the closing date, entries will remain open for 2 weeks or until there are 16 teams entered, whichever is earlier. If more than 16 teams have entered on the closing date, there will be an online stage to reduce the field to 16 for face to face play. If 17 or 18 teams have entered, the bottom 4 teams will play in the online stage; if 19 or 20 teams have entered, the bottom 8 teams will play in the online stage, If 21 or 22 teams have entered the bottom 10 teams will play in the onlne stage.
