disrtict tournaments
looking thru various district sites, it seems all districts allow all their teams to participate( be it play in/play down games) then move to a double elmination bracket once they get to 8 teams, with the exception being District 10. Anyone know why this might be? or have any insight on this? Just curious

The question being why D10 doesn't or why others do?the_juiceman wrote:looking thru various district sites, it seems all districts allow all their teams to participate( be it play in/play down games) then move to a double elmination bracket once they get to 8 teams, with the exception being District 10.

Why others do-Probably has something to do with the number of teams in each district, something to do with rewarding the #1 seed, something to do with giving everyone a chance I guess. Or some combo of all of the above.
Why D10 doesn't-D10's reasoning??? No clue.

If everybody qualifies for the District tournament why play the league, you earn your spot by doing well in your league. This year for their larger leagues, I noticed 12 teams qualified with a 4 game play down with the top 4 teams seeded in. All Squirt and Girls 10U teams qualify for the tournament. I noticed they also removed the automatic spot for to the Regions for the league champion. All region seeds come from the District tournament. That way all games are important.
