No points are given for making the playoffs in a tournament that is of a lower level than your team's classification. Points will be adjusted for the rest of the teams if a team of higher classification is in the tournament. No points are given for a tournament in which there are three or less teams of your classification.
Rank is based on a "Seeding Coefficient" which is calculated according to the following formula. Only the team's best five finishes are considered in this formula.
Total Seeding Points Earned
Seeding Coefficient = ----------------------------
Number of Tournaments Played
If more than one team has the same coefficient, the team with the greater number of total Seeding Points will be ranked higher. Results of head-to-head competition will also be taken into consideration. In Regional seeding, if more than one team has the same ranking, the teams will be distributed based on geographical location to allow them to play teams from other areas of the Region.
