Game End Time Reminder

End of Game Scenarios

The game is scheduled to end at 5 minutes prior to the end of the scheduled slot, just like in the Regular Season. For example the 9:00 games will end at 10:25,  10:30 games will end at 11:55, so on and so forth.

Ties were acceptable in the Regular season, but not in Playoffs. Therefore, the following applies:

At five minutes before the end of the scheduled time slot, the next turnover or point ends the game, unless the game is 1) Tied, in which case the next point wins, or 2) A one point game, in which case the game is over at the next turnover or point by the leading team OR if the lagging team has possession when the clock strikes, they must score without turning it over for the game to continue. If they do score to tie it up, the next point wins.

1) Score is 10-7. Time hits 10:25, disc is dropped by either team, or either team scores without turning it over, game is over.

2) Score is 10-10. Time hits 10:25, team with possession scores, game is over.

3) Score is 10-10. Time hits 10:25, disc is dropped. Game continues until one team scores to break the tie. Once either team scores, game is over.

4) Score is 10-9. Time hits 10:25, the leading team has possession and drops it or scores, game is over.

5) Score is 10-9. Time hits 10:25, the lagging team has possession and drops it, game is over.

6) Score is 10-9. Time hits 10:25, the lagging team has possession and scores without turning it over, game continues until either team scores again.

Summer League Playoff Structure

Here is your 2014 Capital Subaru Playoff Structure – all going down on Saturday, August 23th at Fieldian’s and Ayre Athletic Grounds (for now).

There will be 4 playoff divisions:

Top 4 teams play for Flaherty Cup (Division 1)
Teams 5-12 play for Division 2 Title
Teams 13-20 play for Division 3 Title
Teams 21-28 play for Division 4 Title

– All teams get 2 guaranteed games, some will have 3 depending on performance
– For Division 1 – 1 vs 4 and 2 vs 3 with winners playing each other for championship and losers playing for 3rd place.
– For Divisions 2, 3 & 4 – 8 team single elimination bracket with losers playing consolation games

I HAVE MORE QUESTIONS!!

Q: How did you guys decide the structure?
A: Our League Committee sits down together and looks at all the factors in play. These include ensuring everyone gets 2 games, level of competition, scheduling, field availability, avoiding back-to-back games, avoiding too many games in the day – and the big one that we’ve heard you loud and clear over – ensuring playoffs take place in one day. The Committee discussed a number of scenarios, and then finally put forward a recommendation to the Board.

Q: At the end of the Regular Season, do teams move up/down a tier.
A: Yes. There will be one more movement at the end of this round.

Q: How many teams do we have this year?
A: We have 28 of 30 teams playing in the playoffs this year!

Q: Why did you separate Div 1 into  a smaller group?
A: This is never an easy decision, as we know people have a lot of opinions on it. In the end, it came down to two things… it provided the most number of teams with a level of competition that more closely aligned with their skill level and the level they have faced all year. And, second, it avoided a system of numerous bys in various divisions. This ensured a smoother and easier playoff day for all involved.

Q: So, who is the overall winner?
A: Well, using our ladder structure, the top team in our league will be the overall winner and take home the Flaherty Cup. However, we’ll also have some fun trophies for Divisions 2,3 and 4.

Q: How awesome is playoff day going to be?
A: Awesomeness level will be high. #IwishwehadatshirtgunbutKarensaidno

Q: If my team loses a game, are we done?
A: If you lose your first game, you are out of contention for the trophy of your respective division; however, you will get to play again in a consolation game! Everyone is guaranteed at least 2 games!

Q: I want to watch the finals, will you be posting the schedule?
A: Stay tuned to our website to get the full playoff details/schedules!

Subbing for Summer! (2014)

To help meet subbing demands, players can now sub 6 games in a season. But, a few things to also remember:

– All general subbing rules still apply: https://www.milezeroultimate.com/?page_id=250
– You can still only sub 1 playoff game, and it is included in your 6 total.
– If you are having major playoff issues with players, please contact MZU and we will address it on a case-by-case basis.
