SCHEDULE
The schedule will be available one week prior to the start of the event.
IMPORTANT SCHEDULE NOTES
When viewing your schedule, use only the bracket to determine the home/away team. The home team is the top team in the bracket and will wear white. Again, refer to the bracket (not the team schedule) to determine home/away.
Games will begin at 9:00 A.M. each day of the event. The last games will start at 7:30 P.M. on December 18, 19, and 20.
Teams must be prepared to play in a game starting as late as 8:00 P.M. on December 21st.

In order to compete, all athletes must have a Waiver of Liability signed by a parent or guardian. The waiver is done entirely online; if it is not completed by December 1st, the athlete may not compete.
The waiver will be available in October.
