Experts,
What is usually the age limit to be able to participate in a Senior Event for USAB sanctioned tournaments???

In the past NJ Open, I believe it's 40 (Men events, only).

Thanks LB;
Now, is the age limit of 40, is it just a standard practice or is it part of any rules by USAB??

Quite a few senior master tournaments start at age 35.
I think it's up to the tournament organizer.

hmm. thank you;
For the dallas open this past week-end, we had to take up some heat from the 'real' seniors(40+) saying that the age limit for the seniors should be 40 & not 35.
So, I was wondering if there was a rule that actually stated what the age limits should be.
Well, I guess not!!!
