As the title suggests, there will be a lockout tournament **targeted towards pre-college students**, organized by (in no particular order) [user:lethan3,2023-04-27], [user:ezraft,2023-04-27], [user:PurpleCrayon,2023-04-27], [user:GusterGoose27,2023-04-27], [user:Apple_Method,2023-04-27], [user:codetiger927,2023-04-27], [user:qpwoeirut,2023-04-27], [user:clcos,2023-04-27], [user:jamster,2023-04-27], and [user:izhang,2023-04-27].↵

### Timing↵
↵
The opening ceremony will start [April 29](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20230429T1030&p1=1240) around 10:30 AM Pacific time (click the link to see the converted time), where tournament specific rules and the structure will be announced.↵
↵
It will last for an expected 4 hours. You can check the [website](https://lockout-tournament.vercel.app/) for more details.↵

All problems for the lockout matches will come from the Codeforces problemset, so the starting time may be modified depending on how fast system tests for round 869 go.↵
