The night’s signature event is the “crokinole survivor” contest, sponsored this year by Brown Castle Games. Players will sit at a board with 4 discs each and shoot at the open 20 hole in turn. If you score a 20, you get your disc back; if not, it goes into the ditch. the last player with a disc wins the match and goes on to play the other winners until a champion is crowned. This year’s defending champion is “Magic” Mike McTague of EPCC Voorheesville. If your team CANNOT attend, please RSVP to Jay at extrapint@yahoo.com.

BRACKETS

 In the interest of time, we’ve modified the typical 64 team double-elimination bracket format. Seeds 23 thru 42 will compete head-to-head in Round 1 (round of 64). The winners will advance to Round 2 while those teams that failed to advance will play back in their own bracket for 33rd place. 

The Main Double-Elimination Bracket starts at Round 2 (round of 32). 

The losers of the tournament semi-finals will play for 3rd place. The winners of the consolation bracket will be awarded 5th place. The losers of the consolation semi-finals (round 7) will play for 7th place while the four losers of the consolation quarter-finals (round 6) will compete for 9th place.  

Each match in the second round will have its own scoresheet. They are individualized by match numbers that correspond to your position in the bracket.

After your match’s conclusion, you will be directed to your next match by the numbers on the bottom of your scoresheet.
