This is the Third Annual Invitational that is being Sponsored by "The Combine" network.
This seasons (S24) tournament will be expanded to cover a lot more age groups and effective levels, depending upon what interest we receive from the various groups. For a group to attain a bracket and compete in this tourney there has to be a minimum of 12 teams and a maximum of 32. If we go over 32 we will break that group into two separate brackets in order to ensure we can get all games scheduled and completed prior to the playoffs. Not to mention that the more brackets, the more trophies awarded.
► Registration ◄
Please have the team owner or co-owner from your team sign up. They will then be invited into the PF, where they can discuss the tournament with our staff, interact with the other team owners & GM's and keep up to date on the status of the tournament.

► Brackets ◄
As mentioned above, we will be separating teams into various brackets based on several items: effective level, competitiveness and number of teams we want in each grouping.
► Trophies ◄
The trophies will be awarded for performance based on bracket size and placement.
8-15 Team Entries - 1st & 2nd place trophy
16 or more Team Entries - 1st, 2nd & 3rd trophy
**We will attempt to keep brackets limited to 32 max, but there could be a few over depending on the exact numbers. Our intent, however, is to have more groupings and more trophies. **

► Scheduling of Games ◄
1. Higher seed is responsible for sending challenge. However, either team may send the scrim request.
2. Regular season games, IF and only IF they are within the rounds time frames, may be substituted, and then only if both owners agree.
3. If you have all 6 scrim slots taken up, and cannot possibly get your tourney game complete in the appropriate timeframe, you can be forfeited for your round.
► Please Follow schedule If we get early games in, keep the pace going. ◄
1st round games will be played before day 5.
2nd round games will be played before day 10
3rd round will be played before day 15.
4th round games will be played before day 20.
5th round games will be played before day 25
(This will depend largely on the number of teams that we have entered as to how many rounds we need to go. If we have a lot of teams, then we will need to follow the above schedule, but if we have less teams we will space out the rounds some and adjust accordingly. One other note here about the dates for the Rounds.... we will be a LITTLE flexible in scheduling as we hate to force anyone to forfeit a game, BUT we cannot allow the tourney to fall too far behind as other teams will be sitting around waiting, so please make sure you leave some dates open along the way.)
► When you set up the scrimmage please select these and only these options ◄
[x]This friendly is ranked and should be taken seriously
[ ] Results are viewable by the participants only
[x] Use playoff-style overtime rules
[ ] Enable home team abilities
[ ] Enable salary-based morale bonuses
One very important thing bit of information here that we want to get out..... we are conducting signups right now to get a list of teams and figure out how many brackets we will need, but the actual breaking down into groups / brackets won't happen until around Day -1 or Day 0 when we will take a look at all teams and their effective levels and start the bracket process so teams can hopefully start scheduling games around Day 1 or Day 2.
