Bettendorf Bulldog Invitational

2025 — Bettendorf, IA/US

Tentative Schedule

Tentative Schedule

The following schedule is tentative, but will be followed as strictly as possible. We will accelerate this schedule whenever possible. Please do not leave the building for any reason. If there are any changes to the schedule, you will be the first to know.

It would help out immensely if all schools could do their best to fulfill their judging obligation so we can make the tournament run as smoothly as possible. We have set a certain number of outrounds per division, based on previous years’ attendance – the number of preliminary rounds will not change, but the number of outrounds will be adjusted as needed.
