THE PRACTICE WAS SET UP AS A ROUND ROBIN TOURNAMENT STYLE WITH 3 MINUTE GAMES. EACH TEAM PLAYED EACH OTHER ONCE WITH THE TOP TEAM AS THE WINNER. POINTS AWARED WERE 100 POINTS FOR A MAX ONLY (A MAX BEING SHOOTING ALL OPPOSING PLAYERS WITH TIME REMAINING),

THESE PRACTICES WERE SET UP SO THAT LOCAL TEAMS COULD COMPETE IN A FUN ENVIRONMENT WITH NO ATTITUDES WHILE FINE TUNING THEIR GAME. IT SEEMS TO BE WORKING BECAUSE ALL THE TEAMS HAVE SHOWN IMPROVEMENT OVER THE MONTHS.

ONCE AGAIN, THE TOURNAMENT WENT SMOOTHLY AND THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS. NOT ONE PENALTY WAS CALLED ALL DAY! WITH 8 TEAMS ATTENDING ONE DIVISION WAS SET UP. AFTER PRELIMNARY PLAY, TWO TEAMS (KULTERGEIST AND RUNNING RIOT) HAD 600 POINTS AND WERE JOINED BY CHINCHILLAS IN HEAT IN THE FINALS.

WITH THREE TEAMS IN THE FINALS, EACH TEAM PLAYED EACH OTHER ONCE. AS LUCK WOULD HAVE IT EACH TEAM HAD ONE WIN AFTER THREE GAMES. IN THE SPIRIT OF GOOD SPORTSMANSHIP (AND TIRED PLAYERS) THE THREE TEMAS DECIDED TO SPLIT FIRST PLACE, WITH EACH TEAM LEAVING WITH A TROPHY.

THANKS TO ALL THE TEAMS THAT ATTENDED AND HOPE TO SEE YOU NEXT TIME.

ANY TEAM WISHING TO PARTICIPATE IN THESE TOURNAMENT STYLE PRATICES SHOULD CALL (203)596-7502 TO SIGN UP. THE NEXT PRACTICE WILL BE HELD ON SUNDAY DECEMBER 3RD. TEAMS SHOULD GET TO THE FIELD BY 9:00am.
