refund. A team cancelling from one tournament to enter a different

receives entry into a tournament but does not pay its entry fee,
the team's club will be fined the amount of the entry fee.
  

This is a 12 team tournament and we will be following the standard USAV Format:
https://www.ovr.org/juniors/tournament_packet/JTP_Tournament_Format_12.pdf

3 courts, 4 referees, 12 teams, 28 matches, 3 pools of 4 teams:

Pool Play Format:
For pools of 4 teams, the best of 3 sets will win matches. Each non-deciding set will be won by the
team that first scores 25 points with a minimum 2-point advantage (no scoring cap). If there is a
deciding set, it will be won by the team that first scores 15 points with a minimum 2-point
advantage (no scoring cap). Change sides when a team earns 8 points. A point will be scored on each
rally. If the receiving team wins the rally, they score a point and gain the serve. 

Pool Play Schedule:
1 vs 3 (2)
2 vs 4 (1)
1 vs 4 (3)
2 vs 3 (1)
3 vs 4 (2)
1 vs 2 (4)

Tournament Format:
All teams advance. All teams must be ranked within their pools based on match percentage first. For
any ties, use the tie-breaking procedure below. All first-place, second-place, and the top two third place
teams to the Gold playoffs. The remaining third-place and all fourth-place teams to the Silver
playoffs.
Playoff positions on the tournament brackets will be based on pool finish to avoid teams from the
same pool playing each other in the first round. To avoid third-place teams playing a team from
their pool for the first tournament match, a tournament director can choose to switch best third place
and second-best third-place teams on the tournament bracket if both teams consent to the
change. 

Food:
A full Concession stand will be open all day with a variety of
food, lunch items, snacks, and drinks.  Absolutely no outside vendor food
is allowed in the building.  If you bring any food or
drink in the facility you will be asked to take it outside. 

Spectator Seating: 
There is plenty of bleacher seating on both sides of the H.S. courts. Bag Chairs will be permitted upstairs in the balcony of the H.S. gym as well as in the Middle School. Team Campsites will be designated in the H.S. Commons and the MS Aux gym. 

Awards: 
Presented to the winners of the Gold bracket only. 
(1st Place Gold will receive Tourney Champ T-shirts & 2nd Place Runner's Up will receive Under Armour Headbands)

Cancellation:
The tournament will ONLY be cancelled if Wood County is on a Level 3
winter advisory.  In that event, tournament fees will be refunded. Please plan accordingly with your commute with inclement weather in NWO.

Note: OVR rankings appearing in the following listings are intended only as a helpful tool for tournament directors. They are subject to frequent change, including after the pools are set, and other factors may also be considered when determining pools and order of play.
