2024 NSA POLK FALL BRAWL - 3/1 FORMAT

IMPORTANT INFO FOR COACHES/PLAYERS  

1.    We were forced to change the format of this event because the additional complex we had is still being used for hurricane relief efforts. We have 35 teams in the event and needed all 10 fields in order to do the 2 seed into a double elimination format. We thank you for your understanding and hopefully we can put these hurricanes past us very soon. 10U you will still play a 2 seed into a modified double elimination which means no if game. All other age groups will be a 3/1 format

2.    High School teams - Some of you will play all 3 seed games on Saturday and others will finish their 3^rd seed game on Sunday before elimination starts. This was determined by a random draw to keep it fair.

3.    12u and HS will split into gold and silver brackets on Sunday. You may request on Saturday at check-in where you would like to be placed but please understand that it is not a guarantee, and it may not happen. 

4.    You must be sanctioned and have current insurance prior to your first game.
