Details for this year are still being finalized, so check back here later. For your planning purposes, note that District Six will not require club qualification this year in any flight and new this year to the Grand National Teams – there are MAJOR CHANGES TO FLIGHT LIMITS.

The FLIGHT MASTERPOINT LIMITS are as follows:

Open Championship Flight Unlimited

Flight A Under 6000 Masterpoints

Flight B Under 3000 MasterpointsFlight C Non-Life Master Under 750 Masterpoints

Flight eligibility will be established by ACBL’s September masterpoint cycle. This information was produced on August 6, 2024 in Horn Lake, MS. Masterpoints won after this cycle will not impact flight eligibility for these events.

The first qualifying weekend for the Open Championship Flight will be held February 1-2, 2025 at the Silver Spring Civic Building. The Open Championship Final will conclude February 22-23, 2025 at the NVBA Sectional.

Flight B and C will be contested February 1-2, 2025, possibly including a satellite site and with any final rounds also at the NVBA Sectional February 22-23.

The Flight A schedule and site details are still being determined.
