Tournament format:

Round Robin - Best of three to 15, or 30 minutes long, whichever comes first. After 29 minutes of game play, a bell will sound which will denote only 3 more points are allowed in the match. If bell sounds in the middle of a point, then that point continues and when it is finished, the next 3 points are the last of the game. No exceptions-do NOT have to win by 2.

Single elimination:

The top 32 teams advance to the single elimination round. The top 32 teams are decided by who has the best win/loss record and if there is a tie between teams, the tiebreaker used will be average point differential per game.

For example, if a team won by 5 in the first game, won by 10 in the second game, and lost by 4 in the third game, their total point differential is 5 + 10 - 4 = 11 points. If the team had a point differential of 15, 4, and -2 in their other 3 games, the average point differential for all four games would be= (11 + 15 + 4 -2) / 4 = 7

In Round 1 of single elimination, play best of 3 to 15 points, win by 2 (cap at 21). For all following rounds, play best out of 3 to 21 points, win by 2 (cap at 25). If a tie-breaker is not necessary, it is not played. There are no time limits in single elimination play.
