Tournament
will have two levels of competition:
Level
One: The 16 teams divided into four groups of four teams. Each group will play
a three game Round-Robin format with the other teams in the same group. A
winning team from each group will advance to Level Two. Group assignments of
each team will be by random draw.

If we have less than 16 teams enter or enough interest to have 20 teams, then
adjustments to Level One will be made.
I will need 2-3 volunteers to help run
the tournament. Also we will need 8 card tables and 8 sets of dominos. Please
email me if you are interested in helping or if you can bring tables or
dominos. Thank you!!!

late.
