Regional Assignment Process

1. Regional tournaments are assigned based on several factors:
   1. The order in which teams register. Teams that register first get assigned first
   2. The rankings that teams choose for which regional competition they prefer. We try to place all teams in their first choice, but teams that register late are often placed in their 2nd-6th choice. Register early and remember that you cannot change these selections once you hit submit!
   3. The capacity of each regional tournament. Regional tournament host may elect to have 12, 24, or 36 teams at each of their sub-tournaments.
   4. The tournament host may also elect to add additional qualifications for participation in their tournaments (i.e. only elementary schools, in-county only, etc.).
2. Once assigned, you will receive communication through two methods:
   1. the email you used in registration will be contacted with your regional assignment. 
   2. all regional assignments will be posted on this website.
