JLall8 Scheduled for June 22-25
We have scheduled JLall8 for June 22-25 this summer. The format will depend on the number of teams entered, but will probably be 2 days of Round Robin play to qualify either 4 or 8 teams for KO. The Round Robin will be Thursday and Friday, June 22 & 23. If there are 4 KO teams, the Semifinal will be Saturday and the Final Sunday. If there are 8 KO teams, the Quarterfinal will be Saturday, the Semifinal will be Sunday, and the Final will be scheduled at the convenience of the 2 teams playing in it.
