Your team will have 60 minutes for a match to play up to 5 games and the winner will be best out of 5. If there is a winner before the allotted time is up, the team can scrimmage for the remaining time, ensuring you still have 60 minutes to play.
You have two options for registration:
You can register as a team captain/full team and decide how many players you would like on your team (2 min, 6 max). This also will ensure you will be registered at the same time.
You can register as an individual/small group, and you will be placed on a team with other individuals and/or small groups. Each of these teams will have up to 6 players depending on the registration.
