WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP UPDATE:
We have received word from Collier County/Naples, Florida that the 2022 World Championships will need to be postponed until 2023, due to the impact of Hurricane Ian.
The storm surge caused inland flooding; Sugden Regional Park and area hotels and restaurants would not be ready for the event. These businesses are facing many obstacles and they are working hard to open their doors again. We look forward to 2023 in Naples and wish everyone our best and a quick recovery.
