Fall Super Six NIT 6GG Update
Format: 6 Game Championship Round Robin
*6 65-Minute Pool Games (8u 60 mins $40 PAP)
$45 PAP Pools; Champions Bracket $50 75 Min Games
Top 6 teams in each division make the Champions Bracket Sunday afternoon; Larger Divisions will have two brackets, see breakdown below:
8u Open & 10u Open; 1-6 Teams Bracket with top six teams making the Finals Sunday afternoon
12u Open & 14u Open; 2-6 Team Brackets (Seeds 1-6 Gold Bracket, Seeds 7-12 Silver Bracket)
Teams that don’t make the finals for their division will play their six games and be done
Schedule Notes: This event will have 500+ games spread across 23 fields. Our normal scheduling disciplines were challenged here due to the large number of games, and the lower # of teams that could play Friday night. We had 7 fields open Friday night, that we couldn’t fill which would have really taken the pressure off of the late games Saturday. For example, those 21 games would have saved us from having that 9pm round Saturday. We appreciate your patience here!
Pace of Play Notes:
Modified Run Rule: 8, 6, 5 after 3, 4, 5 *This run rule will help us stay on time (10, 8, 6 for 8u)
No on field warm ups, or on field post-game meetings
1-minute between innings; Umpires will be focused on enforcing this rule
Please get in & out of the dug outs as quickly as possible *An extra 5 minutes wasted per game turn adds an extra hour at the end of the day which no one likes
Have your lineups ready if you are playing back-to-back games
If fields are running ahead, we will start early. Have your teams ready 30 mins prior
