League Format

League registration begins around the end of August each year, with games starting after Thanksgiving and running until Easter.

  • Pools: Multiple pools of teams, each roughly divided by team skill. Teams may move up or down during the season depending on their win/loss record in the round.
  • Round Robin: All teams in each pool play one another. The teams with the best records move up to the next higher pool, while the teams with the fewest wins move down.
  • Playoffs: At the end of all rounds, playoffs — seeded based on round-robin performance — will determine the top teams in the league.
