Pools

These seedings are preliminary; please contact Jean with any questions, complaints, suggestions, etc. Considerations were made to avoid DoG and Boss Hogg players unnecessarily playing against the other contingent that they are bringing. I also avoided having three Dartmouth teams in the same pool, but made sure to set up the D'alums vs Dartmouth A game.

I don't know very much about how the Canadian teams match up on the American teams so please don't hesitate to let me know if something is off.

Tournament rules

• Pool play (Saturday) games to 13.
• Prequarter and quarterfinals to 13, semifinals and finals to 15 (for all brackets).
• One timeout per half and a floater. No timeouts after cap. Soft cap (play to two higher than the higher score) goes on 10 minutes before the end of each round, hard cap goes on at the end of the round.
• Full adherence to UPA 10th Edition rules, except for fouls on the mark. Fouls on the mark will be judged using UPA 9th Edition rules.

Format

There are two elite pools (A and B) and two open pools (Y and Z). All pools do standard pool play on Saturday, with four games and a bye. X1 and Y1 go into the top bracket. Pools are then reseeded into A1-A6, B1-B6, X1-X4, Y1-Y4. That makes for a 12-team A bracket (standard pre-quarters, etc. format) and an 8-team B bracket (standard quarters, etc. format). The two open teams that move up to the A bracket become the bottom seed in the A and the B pools.

The top two teams in the A and B pools have first round byes on Sunday.

The losers of the four prequarter A games will have their own 4-team consolation semifinals and finals. The first-round losers in the B bracket have the option of waiting until the third round on Sunday, when fields become available, to play their own consolation.

Pool play byes:
Round 1: 4 seed
Round 2: 2 seed
Round 3: 5 seed
Round 4: 3 seed
Round 5: 1 seed
