About the GSTPA

The Grand Sham Tournament Players Association (GSTPA) is an unsanctioned organization responsible for the administration and oversight of organized play conducted under its authority.

The Association maintains competitive events through the GSTPA Tour and is responsible for the application of standards, conditions, and participant conduct.

In addition to its administrative role, the Association conducts ongoing observation of player behavior, performance outcomes, and recurring patterns across a broad population of participants.

These observations are recorded and made available for review.

The Association does not assess correctness.

It records recurrence.
