Tournament Note

Thursday: June 21

6:40PM
The revised & updated Pool Play schedule for the 14U Age Group is now live on line.

6:20PM
Tonight's Manager's will be at 8PM in the Windsor VII room at the Embassy Suites - La Vista. We look forward to seeing you there.

5:55PM
13 & 14U Pool Play Update - After carefully considering numerous options, as well as input from a handful of Coaches and the CEO of Triple Crown Sports, we have decided that we will advance teams into Championship play based on 2 Pool Play games played.

What this means for your team is the following as stated below:
1) All teams in 13U/14U will play a maximum of 2 Pool Play games
2) If your team played 2 games today you will be off and play no games on Friday.
3) If your team didn't play any games today you will play 2 Pool Play games on Friday.
4) If your team played 1 game today you will play 1 more game on Friday.
Once all teams have played their 2 Pool Play games then we will Seed all teams into the playoffs.
The Tournament Director Slumpbuster Staff thought long & hard about the best case scenarios as a result of the weather we have confronted over the past 5 days. While not all teams might not be in agreement with this we do believe this decision is in the best interests of ALL teams in the 13U & 14U age divisions. It creates an equal opportunity for every team to advance into the playoffs based on everyone having played 2 games vs an opposing idea of advancing teams based on some teams playing either just one, two or three Pool Play games. We believe this approach would have given some teams an unfair advantage.

We appreciate all your support of our decision (Coaches & parents) as we feel this approach gives us the best opportunity to maintain the integrity of the 2018 Slumpbuster.

We will be posting Friday's 13U schedule this evening by 6PM.
We will be posting Friday's 14U schedule this evening by 8PM.

ALL TEAMS: please check the revised brackets for your respective Age Groups as Field Locations, Game Times & your Opponents may have changed.

Thank you for your patience with the weather today. Best of luck to all teams as you progress through the Slumpbuster.

SEEDING PROCEDURE (First factor is Win-Loss record)
Two Way Tie
1. Head to Head between tied teams
2. Total Run differential
3. Runs Allowed
4. Runs Scored
5. Actual run differential in last pool game
6. Coin Flip

Three (or more) Way Tie
1. Head to Head (if sweep)
2. Total Run differential
3. Runs Allowed
4. Runs Scored
5. Actual run differential in last pool game
6. Coin Flip

RA=Runs Allowed
RS=Runs Scored
LAD=Last Actual Differential

IMPORTANT: Run differential maximum
1. Forfeits will be scored 7-0
2. Maximum run spread per game is 7 regardless of score.

Note: When 3 or more teams are tied and there is not a common opponent amongst all tied teams, run differential is the first tie breaker.
Ties will be counted as a .5 win and .5 loss.

Pool Protection in Bracket Play:
When seeding teams for the playoffs, if 2 teams have previously played each other in Pool Play (ie: 2 teams from the "A" pool) then we will Pool Protect. This means we will provide both teams with a new opponent from a different pool (ie: "B" pool) for their first playoff game. For example, in an 8 team playoff bracket the #1 Seed would normally play the #8 Seed. However, if the #8 Seed is from the same Pool then we would flip the #7 seed with the # 8 seed so that the #1 seed would play an opponent from a different Pool (ie: "B" pool).
