There will be two pools of 4 teams. You play every team in your pool. Each pool play round will be BEST OF THREE games (please note this is different than regular season play). Finals will be best of 5 (unless captains mutually agree that they are exhausted and want to make it best of 3).
AFDC will provide beer and lunch at the fields. Please drink responsibly.
Kits will be up and ready by 10 a.m. If any morning people want to get there early and help set them up, that would be lovely.
Soft cap goes on 15 minutes before the next round starts. Finish the game you're playing. If, after the end of that game, one team is ahead, the round is over. (ex. both teams haven't won a game yet. cap goes on. team 1 wins the game, you're currently playing after soft cap goes on. round is over. team 1 won 1-0). If soft cap goes on, you finish the game you're currently playing and that ties it up, 1-1, start 3rd game and play until the hard cap. Hard cap goes on 10 minutes before the next round starts. Next score ends the game (unless it creates a tie. then play one more point). If team 1 is up 1-0 in games and hard cap goes on while team 2 is up in the 2nd game but doesn't win the actual game, team 1 still wins the round.
Games START AT 10 A.M. i will not push back the rounds if your team is late. Teams are allowed to assess points!
I am arbitrarily deciding you can assess 1 point for every 3 minutes a team is late, so if a team is 15 minutes late, you have won 1 game.... To assess points, your team needs to be on the field, ready to play, and give a 2 minute warning to the other team that you will start assessing points.
