Please see the USCF Rulebook:
32A. Announcement. Prizes to be awarded and the methods used to allocate
them must be announced in pre-tournament publicity if they vary from the
standards below. In all cases, these guidelines apply equally to
individuals
or teams.
What does "Scholar****ps to Texas Tech will be awarded based in part on
performance in this event." mean?
Can you be more specific? It costs a lot of money to travel to Las Vegas
and
if I am going to foot the bill I need to know what my child is playing for
-
with details.
Thank you.

Throwing around phrases like "Over $100,000 in scholar****ps and cool chess
prizes are available"
is enticing, but is it enough detail to satisfy tournament advertising
standards?
