GET HO HO HO! Sunday teams
& proposed seeding
These are the teams playing SUNDAY in still preliminary seeding
order.
Seeding has changed and is changing based on responses and further
consideraton. Please check your team and send in comments (on your team
and any others). Keep checking this page for updates.
Your seeding will determine which division you're in (see below). We
expect to have an 8-team DIV 1 and either a 14-team DIV 2 or 8 or 6 teams
each in DIVs 2 and 3. See last year's Sunday formay for how the 14-team
DIV will run. You can vote for your preference. Division breakdown
may change based on field conditions.
It's likely you won't know many of the teams, but feel free to say which
division you'd like to be in or think you belong in based on other teams you
know. If you're basing on GHHH! history, it looks like the teams overall
are stronger this year and the upper two divisions go deeper.
(Teams in blue are playing both days. We may
adjust the seedings after Saturday's results are in.)
I'd like to keep DIV 1 at 8 teams. If there is great demand from two
teams to move up, DIV could expand to 10, but that format is significantly
inferior. Next we'll have either an 8- and a 6- team division (DIV 2
and Div 3) or one 14-team division.
