Welcome to the DMV Cup ’26 Qualifier! NOON REGISTRATION, 1PM START Do you have what it takes to take home the Cup? Prove it first by qualifying at one of the seven (!) participating locations: - July 12th - Carpool - July 18th - Ocelot - August 9th - Holy Frijoles - August 15th - Jackpot Arcade - August 23rd - Reclaim Arcade - September 13th - Spinners - September 26th - Pinball Basement Each location will host one tournament and their top 8 players* will qualify for a final event. The tournament format will be the same across all locations: 4 strikes in groups of 4 (in 4 player groups, bottom 2 get a strike, in 3 player groups, last gets a strike, no finals), cash payouts to top 4 players! Cost is $20 plus coin drop or location admission. Cost breakdown: $9 towards event prize pool, $1 for IFPA, and $10 to finals’ prize pool. Qualifying rules: Players can participate at any location, but if the player qualifies at multiple locations, his qualifying spot will be locked on to the first qualifying location. In other words, if the same player plays at another location and also qualifies, his/her qualifying spot at the subsequent location will be given to the next player below them. If you are already a qualified player, future qualifying events will only cost you $10 ($9 towards event prize pool, $1 for IFPA) plus coin drop or location admission. *If the location has 32 or more players, 8 players will advance to the finals, if not, only the top 6 will advance from that location. Final tournament will be hosted at Vuk, DC. on November 7th
