Ideas on how to run a baseball tourney when stuck with 5 teams in each division
Posted on 6/3/14 at 2:39 pm

We usually do pool play of two games and then reseed but with only 5 teams in each division, I'm kind of in a mess.
Normal format:
2 pool play games
Reseed for single elimination - guarantee of 3 games
Any ideas? We can't absorb the additional costs for the extra games a round robin would create for umpires.

Draw for a bye on each side of bracket.

2 teams play. 2 other teams play. The two winners play. The winners play. The winner plays the other team. The best team wins. Then the best losers play.
Then the losers play the winners. Then the championship, and the winners play the losers.

Prepare to get bitched at for whatever decision you make. "They" all know how to run tournaments better than you.

10 team double elimination doesn't work?

2 divisions
Really can't marry the two but I may have no choice.

It would work great but I'm trying to separate the have's from the have nots.
11U and 12U together will make the 11U coaches bitch.

Had to google that.
Killz and his alter should do that for who gets to decide which fat girl they sleep with this weekend.

Pool play Saturday with #1 seed getting a bye in Sunday Bracket?
Sunday
#2 v #5
#3 v #4
#1 plays winner of #3 v #4
Or make 4 & 5 seed play into the bracket on Sunday
5 team bracket
#4 v #5 winner plays #1
#2 v #3
Sunday
#2 v #5
#3 v #4
#1 plays winner of #3 v #4
Or make 4 & 5 seed play into the bracket on Sunday
5 team bracket
#4 v #5 winner plays #1
#2 v #3

After the two pool play games, have a play in game for the 0-2 teams to play the overall #1 seed.
Tie breakers for overall #1 seed is Head to head, then Runs scored in pool play then margin of victory, after that...coin flip.
Tie breakers if more than 2 0-2 teams is the same.

Way too complicated. Just do a draw for the pool play and have #4 and #5 seeds play into the #1 seed:

Why is it hard?
Pool play is
1-5
2-4
3-5
1-4
2-3
Then you seed after pool
With
Game 1-4 seed vs 5 seed
Game 3-Winner plays 1seed
Game 2- 2 seed vs 3 seed
Then
Game 2 winner vs game 3 winner
It's nothing out the ordinary

4-5 play for the right to play the one seed

Number the teams 1-5 and follow this set
1-5 game 1
1-2 game 2
5-4 game 3
2-3 game 4
4-3 game 5

Thinking maybe pool play threw him off with odd number of teams
Because bracket is always clear cut.
