Tiebreaking Procedures |
|
|
At
the conclusion of a pool, the pool finish positions of the teams are
determined by their pool match record. TexasFest will only play off any tie
that eliminates teams from advancing to the gold bracket. Ties that do not
eliminate a team from the gold bracket - pool play will be determined by
match, set, point percentage. All two-way ties, regardless of advancing, will be determined by
head-to-head. Playoff matches will be scheduled at the conclusion of pool
play. All tiebreakers will be played one set to 25 points. |

Tie
Breaking Scenarios |
|
1. For 3 teams tied in a pool with only 1 team advancing: all 3
teams participate in the tie breaker. |
? Set 1: the #2 seed will play the #3 seed (based on match,
set, and point percentages), and the #1 seed officiates. The loser of set 1
will be 3rd in the pool and will officiate the next tie breaker set. |
? Set 2: the #1 seed will play the winner of set 1. The
winner of set 2 will finish first in the pool and the loser will finish
second in the pool. |
|
2. For 3 teams tied in a pool with 2 teams advancing: the #1
seed (based on match, set, and point ratios) will finish 1st in the pool and
will not have a playoff set. |
? Set 1: the # 2 seed will play the #3 seed with the #1 seed
officiating. The winner of this set will finish second in the pool and the
loser of this set will finish third in the pool. |
|
*Should any team in a tie breaker
scenario leave without performing the appropriate duty, they will forfeit
their position in that tie breaker. |
|
|
NOTE: All point differentials will be for the
entire pool, not the head to head match |
A tournament may choose to
use point % in place of point differential. |
|
If a team will be
eliminated from the Championship division, there will be playoff sets |
played (with the one
exception of a two way tie). If they
will not be eliminated, point |
differential will be used
to determine finishes. |
|
