POOLS

2010 Memorial Day Classic Tournament

HOSTED BY: Northwest Juniors Volleyball Club

DATES: May 29-30, 2010

Seeding and tie-breaking procedures

Seeding for the tournament was done based on tournament results and placing in at Puget Sound Region events and Columbia Empire Power league (using Final Standings).  In most divisions, in order to simplify the tournament your progressive placing throughout the tournament will be based upon your seed and your finish within your pool;

not on how your performance in pool compares to other teams in other pools.  This will make it simpler for coaches, fans, players, etc. to figure out exactly where they play next without having to wait for other pools to finish in order to place themselves within the next pool or playoff bracket.

There will be no playoff sets to settle ties.  Tie-breaking procedures will be as follows:

1. Two-way tie (by match record):               1) Head to head MATCH

2. Three-way tie (by match record):            1) Set Record (sets won vs. sets lost win %)

                                                  2) Overall positive points among the tied teams

                                                  3) If still tied, Overall positive points in the pool

3. NOTE: For Three-way ties, this formula will be used to seed the teams 1, 2, 3.
