However, please let us know as soon as possible if you are coming. Judges will be asked to judge three preliminary rounds per team plus one round past their team's elimination. We have an extremely limited local judging pool, so we would appreciate any additional commitment you would be willing to make. If the number of teams and size of the judge pool allows, a limited number of judge strikes will be permitted. Brackets may be broken in quarterfinals or earlier to prevent teams from the same school meeting.
Rooms are hard to find in Miami at any rate during the high season.
If you have any trouble, or absolutely must have less expensive accommodations, please contact David Steinberg or talk to Cecilia Urdaz, Director of Sales and Marketing at the Holiday Inn. The Miami International Airport is most convenient, and cabs and Super Shuttle are reasonable from there. You may also want to consider flying into the Ft. Lauderdale Airport, about 35 miles away. Public transportation is available, although more expensive and more of a hassle.
