Power League Overview

The Puget Sound Region will continue our linear ranking tournament series to be played at various sites within the region. This tournament series will be used to rank teams within each age division and will provide qualifying and seeding into Prime Time as well as seeding into the Regional Championship tournament.

The tournament series will be held on five days (four for U12).  Teams will be required to enter all days in the league to participate.  The first day will consist of seeding rounds.  After the conclusion of the seeding rounds, teams will be placed into 8-team flights consisting of two 4-team pools.  These flights will play five matches during succeeding single-day sessions. Each team will have three pool-play matches plus two crossover matches.  The teams will be ranked 1-8 after those five matches, and points will be awarded for each placement from top to bottom. The 1-2 place finishers will move up a flight while the 7-8 place finishers will drop down a flight.

The tournament series will be played in five age groups, 18 & Under, 16 & Under, 15 & Under, 14 & Under, and 12 & Under. The odd age groups will play up with the next older age division except for U15 which will have their own division. The rankings of teams in their individual age divisions will be easily ascertained because the rankings are linear.  To see the Power League Handbook (pdf format), click on this line.
