2024 TOUR REGISTRATION

This year we will be going on our 26th annual out-of-state tour. The tour is a fantastic experience and for many the highlight of the year. This year we will go to Salt Lake City, departing on Thursday 4/11 and returning on Sunday 4/14.

All players* are invited on tour and will play matches on Friday and Saturday. In addition to the matches, players will participate in two banquets, have a fun afternoon of bowling, and receive a tour shirt. If you register online by 2/15, the cost for a player to attend is $390. After that, the price goes up to $430. This cost includes all transportation and lodging. We are proud to provide full scholarships for any player who needs one, contact Coach Steve Gore for details.

DPS also requires a Power of Attorney form be printed, signed, and notarized. We will have notaries at upcoming events and matches.

Many parents also join and have a great time. In addition to attending matches, parents participate in the two banquets, receive a tour shirt, and have access to an adults-only social room. If you register online by 2/15, the cost for a parent to attend is $135. After that, the price goes up to $150. Parents provide their own transportation and must book their own rooms (please contact Jacey Wald if the displayed rate is not $169).

Please contact us with questions and we hope you’ll join us this year in Salt Lake City!

* Players must be academically eligible and have less than 4 unexcused absences from practice.
