Playoffs

 Teams must maintain an average Sportsmanship Rating of at least a 3.0 throughout the playoffs. Any team that fails to do so will not advance. For example: If “Team A” has an average Sportsmanship Rating of exactly 3.0 going into a playoff game against “Team B”, and they proceed to get a Sportsmanship Rating of a 2.0 for that game, their total average will drop below a 3.0. This will result in “Team B” advancing in their place, regardless of the final score.  Any team that has 2 ejected players and/or spectators during the playoffs will not advance. For example: If “Team A” has a player/spectator ejected in a win against “Team B”, they will still advance. If they have another player/spectator ejected in their next game against “Team C”, they will not advance. “Team C” will move on in their place. Sportsmanship During Playoffs
