Coaching Conflicts: We do our best to avoid coaches having conflicts during round-robin play. In order to avoid coaching conflicts it is important that you enter the coaches email the same on each application for that coach. If there is a coaching change after the team application is submitted, please add the new coach including their email, and remove the old coach. It is important this is done by the tournament deadline.
