The seeding for playoffs is based on the first 5 or 6 regular-season game results. Seed 1 is the team in first place after the regular season, Seed 2 is the team in second place after the regular season, etc. Total Team Points and Tiebreakers determine the seeding (see “Rules for Standing” above). Rosters are frozen before playoffs begin (i.e. no guest players during playoffs).

Four Team Division: 

Each team plays six games during the regular season (normally with each team playing other teams twice). Division Champion is determined by the best record or most points (with tiebreakers used if needed). If a fifth team is added during the season (such that all teams do not play each other twice), the Division Champion is still determined by the best record or most points.

Parallel Five Team Divisions: 

Five regular-season games determine seeding for a two-round playoff. The divisions are merged for playoffs (e.g. the two highest point totals in each division proceed to semi-final games; the three lowest point totals in each division play consolation games).

Jr League U8/U9 Mini-tournament (end of the year):

To balance the competition each division is split into an upper and lower division (e.g. 4 teams in each split division). Preliminary games are shown as Quarter or Semi-Finals (only to avoid confusion by calling everything a semi-final). Within the split, division teams are seeded based on regular-season results. After the single-elimination preliminary games, the winning teams will proceed directly to the final championship game. There are 10 to 15 minutes between games in addition to hosting in gyms with increased spectator area.
