OTHER TOURNAMENT FACTS

Play begins July 28 for some teams and July 29 for others. Championship games will be played on Sunday JUL 31 for some divisions and Monday, AUG 1 for other divisions.

Entries are open to ENYTB members as well as non-ENYTB members. We welcome new blood.

Entry Fee is $225 per team and is all-inclusive except for umpire fees - each team pays one umpire per game played.

All formats have at least a three game guarantee. Some have four.

Typical 9 team format - combined pool play/SE.

This format consists of three 3 team pools (each team gets one Bye in the first 3 rounds).

Round 4 is the first elimination round. Pairings in round 4 are cross-pool based on tournament records - pool winners are awarded a 2nd bye.

R5 is another elimination round, reducing the field to 3 teams.

The R6 Bye is randomly drawn from among those teams with only 1 bye (automatic Finalist).

Round 7 produces the champion. (5 game MAX)

AWARDS: Team trophies for 1st and 2nd place finishers. Player awards - special ENYTB/LMS tournament medallions for all players on each finalist.

The games are hosted at different members' home fields. Last year we hosted tournament games at 25 different fields. If you wish to be a host for this tournament, drop Ed an email. We usually need all the field time we can get. Even if you are interested in only hosting your own first game or two, let us know.
