Eritrean Festival basketball Tournament

Here is the schedule for the tournament. Everybody make sure to be there 30 minutes before your game starts. No late arrivals, no excuses. Registration money is due prior to game time IN FULL.

We have 6 teams in JV and 11 teams in Varsity.

Due to the odd number of teams, the format for the Varsity tournament  is set up to trim it from 11 to 8 teams in 2nd round. So there are five winners in the first round, one team (Philly Conquering Lions 2) has a bye, and the two teams with the smallest losing margin advance to the second round. That adds up to 8 teams in the secound round and then the tournament continues on Sunday with the semfinals and finals on Sunday.

All of the matchups were randomly selected.
