GAME/SCHEDULE INFORMATION:

Date TBD... We are Looking at running this Late Summer/ Early Fall

6 game regular season.

Top 4 teams qualify for playoffs. Playoff seeding will go by record. Ties in the standings will be broken the following ways: 

  • Head to Head results involving all of the teams tied.
  • Total points scored for the entire season.
  • Total points scored against for the entire season.

In the event of a tie score at the end of regulation play, teams will play a 1 minute overtime starting with a jump ball.  

Should the score remain tied after the second overtime, teams will play a final “sudden death” overtime.

Each team will receive one timeout for each overtime period.  Timeouts cannot be carried over to another overtime period. 

Example: at the end of the season, the 4th and 5th seeded teams have the same exact record but the 5th seeded team won the regular season match up. The 4th spot for the playoffs would be granted to the 5th seeded team)

Playoffs will be single elimination (Winner will receive a championship t-shirt)
