The tournament will take place from Friday, April 17 to Sunday, April 19 at Centro de Capacitación Deportiva y Recreativa (CECADER), Aguadilla, Puerto Rico.
Aguadilla is known as the "Garden of the Atlantic". The name comes from the colorful sponges and marine life prevalent in this area. It is also internationally known for its world-class surfing beaches.
As you approach the town from the east on Rt 2, you pass the exit for the airport. If you take this exit (Rt 110), you come to the Rafael Hernández Airport at the converted Ramey Air Force Base. Now a major civilian airport, it features the longest runways in the Caribbean and services an expanding amount of commercial, private, charter and cargo traffic.
The 18-hole Punta Borinquen Golf Course, which was designed for President Eisenhower, is open to the public and features holes that run right along the cliff on the water’s edge. Spectacular sunsets may be seen from El Miradero, a lookout point on Rt 2, and El Parterre, a legendary park on Muñoz Rivera St.
Time Control is 90 minutes + 30 seconds increment per move and the playing schedule is Friday 8:00pm, Saturday 10:00am and 3:00pm, Sunday 10:00am and 3:00pm.
