Rain policy:
In the event of a rain-shortened weekend, first we will eliminate pool games then if needed go to a single
elimination tournament, if pool games have been played then those games will count as tournament games if needed.
If we are unable to finish all rounds, then win-loss records including pool play, runs allowed, head to head, etc. will determine
tournament champions. If all other means have been used a coin toss will determine winners
