3rd-6th Grade Tournament Preliminary Gym Schedule
UPDATED 2/16 - changes in yellow highlight
The 3rd-6th grade tournament is fast approaching and we have put together a list of preliminary site assignments for the tournament. These will be emailed to all organizations on 2/14. We ask that coordinators confirm these times with the league no later end of day February 16th.
Please note that when a time is listed such as 12pm-6, that means the first game starts at 12pm and the last game starts at 5pm, meaning that we hope the last game ends by 6pm. If you are hosting championship games (as denoted in the last column), medal pickup will be on Friday, February 21st (coordinators will be emailed details). PLEASE make arrangements for someone in your organization to pickup medals that evening.

Tournament Schedule Info
2/14: A team was inadvertently left out of the Varsity Boys D bracket and it has been rebuilt with a few schedule changes. If your team plays in the bracket, please double-check your opening round game time. Thanks
Please note that teams were assigned to brackets and seeded based on regular season results as of 9pm on Monday, February 10th for the 7th-12th grade tournament. While record is the primary driver of seeding, other factors are taken into consideration including forfeit wins/losses, head-to-head, strength of schedule, as well as trying to avoid first round matchups between teams from the same organization (sometimes this is unavoidable). We tried to reduce travel as much as possible, but this is a city wide tournament and we had very few sites available that were centrally located. Best of luck to all teams in the tournament next week!
You can access the schedule using the buttons below (all games for your bracket are shown by looking at the Physical Bracket or Schedule by Bracket) or there is a Tournament option on the Schedule menu with the same options to all of the tournament information. Please note that all brackets, seeds, and schedules are final.

As of midnight on December 31st, rosters were frozen. At that time, the following changes were made to the web site:
- Liability waiver submissions will no longer create roster entries (for those organizations that had chosen that setting)
- Coaches and coordinators will no longer be able to add players to rosters.
- Coaches will no longer be able to edit rosters (for those organizations that had chose that setting). Coordinators are still able to edit rosters (specifically to maintain jersey numbers).
- Moving forward, only coordinators will be able to make updates to rosters, and ANY additions to the roster must be sent to the league for approval before being made on the web site. Only special circumstances will be considered.
