ADA Is Highest Authority:
The American Darters Association acts as the highest authority concerning all Military Cup rulings.
To preserve the integrity of the Military Cup and the National Championship, the ADA reserves the right to disqualify any military member and/or team:
- Whose Military Registration appears to have been altered or contains irregularities that might give that player and/or team an unfair advantage; or
- Where fraudulent circumstances of any nature are found to exist; or
- Whose sportsmanship and/or conduct is deemed by the ADA to potentially bring discredit upon the Military Cup Challenge, the National Championship or the sport.
NOTE: Disqualification will mean forfeiture of all titles, awards and prize money, as well as possible suspension.
