Timetable
9.45am Registration until 10.30.
All group matches 8 minutes a side, 16 mins in total. Win 3 points, draw 2 points, loss 1 point. If teams are level in the group table after the group games, the result between those teams will decide which team finishes ahead. If that does not decide it, it will be done by a toss of coin. Score difference will not count. The reason for this is to discourage very uneven games and to encourage mentors to use their full panels.
