Map/Directions
We will have the room in the back reserved. We will be purchasing some appetizers and beverages. Always a great time to hang out with all the teams.
Event will be round-robin format followed by consolation and championship games. This will give 4 games guaranteed for each team against 4 different opponents. Games will be 30 minute running halves, one timeout per half. Club (international) rules will be enforced by the field officials. Five (5) long poles maximum on the field.
Seedings for the Sunday 12PM and 1:30PM matches will depend on best record in each bracket. If two teams are tied, the winner of the head to head competition will advance to the higher ranking game. If 3 teams are tied, the best goal differential will be the tiebreaker.
Disrespectful behavior toward the field officials or tournament directors will not be tolerated and may result in forfeiture of games or disqualification of the tournament.
