Starting your own competition is not as difficult as most people to believe. To start a competition, all you need:

* a good number of athletes, and
* a venue

A "good number of athletes" is not really a set amount, however, running a tournament with only 5 players is generally seen as a waste of time. To run an "official tournament", a referee also needs to be present. The M.T.T.A has many dedicated referees that are willing to volunteer their time.

If you believe that you have a suitable environment to run a tournament (school gyms are great), and you have interest from the athletes to participate, then contact the M.T.T.A office at:
