Tournament Information

OVR - Sports Imports Girls Junior Championships

Spectators:  Bring your own folding chairs.  Chairs are not
provided!
Due to the large number of teams entered, we will be using
something that is called "Floating Pools".  A pool will start on
one court and at some point in the day, pause an hour and move to
a neighboring court to finish their pool.  Please look carefully
at the pools with two courts listed like "Court 37 & 36".  This
means the pool will start on court 37 and at some time, move to
court 36.  There will be a match break in their schedule in order
to make this move.  Look at your pool schedule closely on
AES.
In the National Division Gold/Silver Divisions, seeding was
done by USAV Bid earned as the first priority.  For Example, all
Open Bid winners were ranked first, then National Bids, followed
by USA and then American Bids.  After these teams were seeded,
then the normal OVR seeding system was followed for the reminder
of the teams.
