Hey ToPL!
We have some exciting, long awaited news! A new ToPL Season will start on April 25th, and Jerry Power and Player One has generously offered to host our Season Opener at the Player One Showroom! Come out and join us for some great pinball as we celebrate the Toronto Pinball League’s 25th Anniversary!
Additionally, we are running two Limited Flipper Frenzies:
• April 4th at Maple Pinball
• April 11th at Bluffs Pinball
These tournaments will be limited to 24 players. Please see the ToPL Tournaments page for full details. Register today!
As COVID case numbers have been declining, we are in a position to cautiously resume league activities with certain considerations in place to keep it safe for everyone participating.
Anyone (including hosts) participating in any ToPL activities must be double-vaccinated at a minimum, and must be masked at all times inside the venue. Proof of vaccination status must be confirmed via the QR code and app. Despite Ontario removing COVID precautions, ToPL will continue to require them for the time being, and our COVID policies will be re-evaluated in future as the situation evolves.
We will start by holding league nights at larger venues that are not residences.
For the Season Opener at Player One, all players need to register with Myles (scorekeeper@topl.ca) not later than Friday, April 22rd. Players may pay for membership online via EFT (e-Transfer) to Mike (treasurer@topl.ca) or cash at the event. Paid members from the Winter 2020 Season that was suspended due to the pandemic will have a $10 credit to their next season membership fee.
In order to provide a safe environment and prevent over-crowding, a capacity limit of 24 people will be in place.
• If we have 25 or more members, ToPL will run 2 sessions at one location.
• The league will accept a maximum of 48 members this season to ensure we have no more than 24 players at a session.
• Drop-in players will not be accepted, and once the season has started, new members need to contact Myles by Sunday evening so that he can advise as to which session they are scheduled.
Please see ToPL’s COVID Policy for full details.
It’s been a long time that we’ve all had to endure this pandemic. We eagerly look forward to re-connecting with you all for our 25th Anniversary and playing some great competitive pinball!
