Dear Team Representative and Coaches,

 

Welcome to the 2013 Six Pack Feb 23rd Invitational. The tournament site is on the campus of the University of Northern Iowa. The Wellness & Recreation Center (WRC) on the corner of Hudson Rd & 22nd Street is the building adjacent to the UNI-Dome to the north.

 

The following sites will be of help for directions.

The format will be pool play followed by bracket play. Please check the tournament schedule for the particulars relating to your division. Pool play will consist of matches 2 of 3 to 25 with deciding game to 15. All sets are decided by 2 points (no cap). The top two teams advance to championship bracket and the bottom two teams will advance to Consolation bracket. Again, check your schedule to determine the exact tournament format. Standard tie-breaker system will apply. (1. Match/Set %, 2. Head-to-Head 3. Point % 4. Coin Toss) Reminder positioning in championship or consolation can be determined by point percentage, but teams WILL NOT be sent home based on point percentage. Tournament format will be best 2 of 3 sets to 25 points, deciding game to 15. All sets are decided by 2 points (no cap).

 

Please check your schedule for the match start time of your pool. You will have 10 minutes to warm up before your 1st match of the day (2 minutes shared ball handling, 4 minutes for serving team, 4 minutes for receiving team). After that, there will be six minutes between matches (3 minutes for serving team, 3 minutes for receiving team). IF YOU ARE THE OFFICIATING TEAM FOR THE NEXT MATCH, BE PROMPT IN STARTING WARM-UPS FOR THE MATCH! Timers will be provided for the officiating teams this year to make sure warm-ups don’t run too long.

 

There will be a $1 admission charge for spectators. Concession information and site rules are listed on your playing schedules. Plug in appliances are NOT allowed at any site. We ask you to inform your parents of these team camp rules as we know they are the ones providing their daughters with the team camps.

 

We are guests and lucky to be able to use these fine facilities, please clean up at the end of the day. Anyone with a cooler in the gym will be asked to leave the facility.

 

We will be at the tournament site at 7:00 AM to begin checking in teams. Line-up sheets will be passed out to each team during check in. We have more than 40 teams participating, so please show up promptly to take care of those administrative duties.

 

If you have any questions, or would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me.

 

Thanks and Good Luck!!
