First Go New England Open 2022
The First Go New England Open will took place over Labor Day weekend, Saturday Sept 3 through Sunday Sept 4, 2022.
Write-up in the AGA Go E-Journal
This event was supported by the new AGA "catchment" area initiative, and all 6 New England states are pooling our catchment funds to provide this special 2-day tournament. We had representation from 5 out of the 6 New England states: Maine, Vermont, Rhode Island, Connecticut and Massachusetts. Next year, we'll try to get at least one person from New Hampshire to attend!
Thanks to player Chi-Hse Teng for pitching in on little notice to take some photos. Check them out!

Location
We were in the Regency Ballroom at the Westford Regency. It was a very comfortable room, and
they treated us very well all weekend. The staff was wonderful; We could not have asked for better treatment.
