Weeks 10 and 6-cont

Second Half of the Season

Assuming TMSL has fields, the O50 will start on Jan 3rd and the Prem, D1, D2 and O40 will have a makeup date on Jan 3rd. If no makeups are needed then Prem, D1, D2 and O40 will start on Jan 10th. See schedule for details

The TMSL board has decided to begin the end of the season tournament on 16 April due to continued challenges getting referees and fields because of youth tournaments and games on Sundays. Based on these issues, there is only one weekend available for games in May, and playing one makeup game will not change the standings. Because O40 and O60 only have 4 teams, their tournament will begin on 23 April. We will use the same format as in the past, with the top teams seeded (for example 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th place) and a draw to determine who they play in the first round. If a division has an odd number of teams, the bye will also be drawn. The schedule should be posted soon after the drawing.

We will hold the draw at 6 pm on Thursday, 6 April at Trident Grill III at 2910 N. Swan Road. Players and captains are welcome to attend.

The schedule for the Tournament Championships will be determined at a later date.
