Please read the following information in its entirety regarding the tournament tomorrow in Santa Cruz. Please note there are two pool locations. Also, please make sure to look at the 16U GIRLS games colored in purple. I have attached the schedule below.
**************************************************************************************************
Tournament Rules:

All games are 6 min in all divisions.
2 minute breaks between quarters, half and one 30 sec. time-out per regular game. Two 30 sec time-outs on the Championship game.
We will need to keep on a tight schedule in order to play 50 min games. We expect the cooperation from everyone to keep on this schedule.
All games will be played to a conclusion. If the score is tied at the end of the game, the teams compete in a penalty shootout. In the first round of a penalty shootout 3 players from each team will take one penalty shot, alternating teams. If the score is still tied at the end of the first round, another player shoot alternately until one team scores and the other misses. In the event of a three way tie in a 3 team bracket, the bracket champion will be determined by: · Goal differential followed by · Goals allowed · Goals scored Shootout goals scored after regulation time doesn’t count on tie breakers. If still a tie one or more rounds of a 5 meters shot between the teams to see who is first. The second place finisher will be determined by head to head result among the remaining two teams.
