==Challenger Approaching Program==
==Challenger Approaching Program==
Early on, Tourney Locator realized that there were serious hindrances in the ability for competitors to travel and compete in different regions.  To encourage traveling and cross pollination of skills the "Challenger Approaching Program" was created. The primary intent is to empower skilled players across the world with the opportunity to be flown to our central location in Dallas, TX to compete against our local community.  Looking for those that have a positive impact on their scene, we have had the pleasure of the following guests. Several of these guest include {{Sm|Wizzrobe}} for Melee, {{Sm|Frozen}} for Project M, {{Sm|ESAM}} for Project M, Smash Wii U and Melee, {{Sm|DEHF}} for both Smash Wii U and Melee, {{Sm|Axe}} and {{Sm|Lucky}} for both Melee and Project M.
