Format
This is a friendly 3 games in one day event.
Due to current covid restrictions, groups of no more than 6 people can meet up. This means the event is restricted to 18 participants – 3 groups of 6 players. These groups will not mix across the day – you will only be able to play games against the people in your bubble. Pairings for each bubble will be drawn at random in advance of the day so each coach will know which bubble they are in. You cannot enter the other teams bubble during the day. If you want to catch up with someone from another bubble during the day – please do so outside the building and away from the playing area.
Masks should be worn during game time. No sharing of dice. All pitches will be wiped down between games.
Round one will be random pairings and then swiss for rounds 2 and 3. This will be a resurrection event which means SPP and injuries do not carry over between games.
We will use the BB2020 league points system for scoring the matches -
• Win – 3 points
• Draw – 1 point
• Loss – 0 points
In addition, coaches may score points for –
• Score 3 touchdowns – 1 point
• Concede 0 touchdowns – 1 point
• Cause 3 casualties – 1 point
