Tournament Schedule

All games in the prelims will have two 20 minutes halves, with a 5 minutes intermission.

The finals will have two 30 minutes halves, with a 10 minutes intermission.

Each team is guaranteed a minimum of 3 (three) games: 2 prelims games and one exhibition game. Four teams will play 4 (four) games: 2 prelims, one exhibition, and one Championship Game. Both Divisions (Middle School and High School) will have 3 (three) teams as follows:  

MS Division:  1. St. Mark's Gold;  2. Chicago Thunder; 3. St. Mark's Blue.

HS Division 1. St. Mark's;   2. Chicago Thunder;  3. Houston THB

During prelims, points will be awarded as follows: 3 pts for a win; 1 point for a draw; 0 pts for a loss. There will be NO OVERTIME periods during prelims. If two teams will accumulate the same number of points, or in case of a three way tie, the next criterion for qualifying in the Finals is: goal percentage (not differential). The percentage will be the result of the total goals scored divided by the total number of goals (goals scored and goals against), multiplied by 100.
