If there are any delays, some
late Saturday games might be pushed over to Sunday morning.
This could affect the Sunday
schedule as well - so recheck the tournament grids.
Note that the site director at
each venue has total flexibility in adjusting the schedule due to weather
delays. This includes shortening games, relocating games at the same
venue, eliminating the overtime period and going straight to penalty kicks.
P.S. Winning teams are reminded to
post their score at this website.

Note the following:
|
Contact your opponent NOW. Don't wait
until you return from Spring Break. |
|
Schedule your first match NOW. There
will be tournaments, rainouts, makeup games, scouts, baseball, softball,
and business trips to work around. The deadline is shown in the top
column. Do NOT ask for an extension. |
|
The upper team in each pairing is the Home
team and is responsible for securing fields and referees. |
|
If the "Home" team cannot secure a site,
play at the "Visitors" location. |
|
No one is eliminated after the first match. |
|
Each game must have a winner. There are no ties. Take along
a copy of the tie-breaker rules to your match. |
|
Good luck. And have fun! |
|
|
SCHEDULE YOUR FIRST GAME NOW.
Everyone has one play-in game that MUST be played by the date at the top
of the column in your grid. It is up to the teams involved to
arrange a mutually acceptable date. The top team in each pairing is
the Home team and is responsible for obtaining a field and referees.
|
|
THERE WILL BE NO EXTENSIONS.
On April 26, the schedules will be finalized. If a score has
not been posted, the tournament director will randomly determine the
winner/loser of the first round. Allow time for spring break
conflicts, rainouts, etc. If the home team cannot supply a field and
refs, play at the visitor's site. Remember, no one is eliminated
after the first game. |
|
Games on May 3 and May 4 will be played at
predetermined sites as determined by the tournament director. Game
times and field locations for these games will be added to the grids by
late September. These games may not be preplayed. |
|
No guest players are permitted. |
|
Teams may request to play UP an age group - but only to a comparable sized
format. 6v6 teams may not play up to 8v8. 8v8 teams cannot
play 11v11. |
|
Each team will play at least two games. |
|
The winning team is responsible for reporting scores. (Use the
"Scores" link on the left navigation bar). |
|
| |
|
Questions should be directed to the tournament director. Make sure you
indicate age, gender, flight, and team name.
But read
the following first!

-
Schedule your first match soon!

-
Second and quarterfinal rounds will be scheduled by the tournament
director on Saturday, October 13 at a predetermined location.

-
How are scores posted?

Notes about Odd-numbered brackets
The home team for game #98 will play the loser of game #11. Schedule
that match as soon as possible with BOTH of the teams in game #11.
The LOSING team advances to game #99 ONLY if the specified team (i.e. the
home team for game #98) has lost.
Game #99 will not be played if the specified team won game #98.
The home team for game #99 will advance to the next round instead.
