THE CHAMPIONSHIP FORMAT
A Note on Scheduling: The Big South Summer Classic is committed to a first-class lacrosse experience for players, coaches, and families. The organizers of the event have been running and lacrosse tournaments for more than 20 years. It is our first goal for you to play as many different teams from as many different areas as possible at our events.  

Teams play for a championship in all divisions. Games consist of four, twelve-minute running quarters. Weather permitting, all teams are guaranteed four games, most teams will play five. We will make every effort to guarantee you are placed in a division vs like competition. Additionally, with enough interest, we will split divisions into A & B brackets. The divisions listed below are placeholders, once we know what teams will be attending we will create division to ensure fair and equal competition.

SEEDING CRITERIA:
The Top teams are determined by
1. W-L record
(If a team plays a 4th pool pay game, their last game (4th game) will not count towards their record)
2. head to head
3. GA = Goals Against
5. coin flip.
*In the event we have an odd number of teams in a division and we have a team who plays a fourth pool play game, their fourth game will not count towards their seeding.

There is limited water sources at the fields. Teams are responsible for their own team's hydration needs. Please clean up your bench area as you depart each game.
