Tournament Format: There is a 3 game minimum. Teams will play two preliminary games Friday
and/or Saturday and are then seeded. The tournament will then continue in a single elimination process
(lose and you’re out format; similar to NCAA and NFL playoffs). All teams will make this single
elimination playoff. Seeding will be based on results of preliminary games, strength of schedule, pretournament seeding and personal observations. Scheduling consideration will also be made in order to
avoid having teams play each other twice although this may happen. We will also try to avoid having
teams from the same organization play each other. The intent is to provide the opportunity for the top
teams to move on without matching up high seeds before the finals. Although this will not be a perfect
process, every effort will be made to make it fair. For example, one team might go 1-1 in the preliminary
games and still have to play in the Play-In game based on strength of schedule while another team that
goes 1-1 might get a bye into the semi finals. Also, a team might have to beat a team twice (once in the
preliminary round and once in the single elimination round) to move on in the tournament. Please
remember that seeding teams is a difficult process; after all, the selection committee for the NCAA
tournament has an enormous amount of information and resources available to it and various media
experts still complain and critique it for the entire week leading up to the first game. In order to win the
tournament, teams need to beat whoever lines up against them.
Play-in games (also called Pig-tail games) are necessary when there isn’t a round number for the
play-off (i.e. 4, 8 or 16 teams). Lower seeded teams will need to play a pigtail game against another lower

VERSION 2
seeded team to advance into the round of 8 (or 4). This is similar to the NFL playoff system where the
wild card teams play lower seeds for the right to advance while the top 2 teams get byes into the
conference semi-finals.
Sunday’s playoff schedule will be posted on the website, www.inthezonesports.biz, throughout the
day Saturday and finalized by 10:30 pm Saturday. Please check the website regularly.

• If a team is up by 20 points or more in the second half, the clock will continue to run unless the
