Tiebreakers - Overtime Reminders |
Just to remind everyone of how tie-breakers are decided for standings and the format for overtime in playoffs:
The standings at the end of the regular season will determine the playoff slot in which your team will start in. If the standings result in a tie, the following format will be followed to determine final standings:
Tiebreaker format:
o Head to head wins
o Lowest points against between tied teams
o Head to head against common opponents
Overtime Format:
During playoffs, if the game ends in a tie at the end of regulation time, officials and teams will follow this overtime format:
If tied at the end of regulation: 2 x 5 minute halves
If still tied: another round of 2 x 5 minute halves
If tied after two rounds of 2 x 5: a single 5 minute period
If tied after single 5 minute period: teams will go to a 5 round shootout (5 players from each team, each shooter a different player)
REMEMBER: Overtimes - No time outs in over time; 1 minute half time; teams switch sides at half
