Tied Breakers after Round Robin Play

After the round robin games completed, to determine teams’ placement for the championship rounds, follow these: Note- With multiple teams tied -this procedure is to determine a clear victor in the tied spot, once determined, the process for the next spot starts at the beginning of the process. Sometimes a team that has defeated other teams within this group and may not proceed and finish last. 

1. The results of the head to head games played between the tied teams in the following order:

A. Standings- Most points

B. Most total wins

C. Differential - Subtracting goals scored against from goal scored in these games. Greatest surplus is the higher seed.

D. Quotient - Dividing goals scored by goals against, the positions being determined in order of the greatest quotient.  A quotient involving dividing by zero (0) has a higher standing than a quotient by any other number other than zero. Where two or more teams have no goals against and the quotient tie breaker is required, the teams shall be ranked high to low in descending order of "goals for".

2. If after applying the formulas of 1- a, b, c, or d, the tie still exists, the results of all the games by the teams tied in the following order:

A. Most wins

       B. Differential- see explanation above

C. Quotient - see explanation above

D. Most periods won- in the games played in each tied game, points will be awarded by each period won (2 points) and for tied periods (1 point). Positions shall be in order of highest point total.

E. Quickest first goal - the team that scored the quickest goal in the round robin game shall be ranked highest.

3. If the above procedure does not break the tie, the teams shall use the shootout procedure as listed in Semifinals and Championship rules.

Semifinals & Championship-

            Regulation play is the same as regular season play plus each team will have 1 time out

If tied after Regulation play, each team will have one time to use but only one for all of OTs’

Goalies will switch sides and there will be 5-minute Overtime 5 players verses 5 player Sudden Victory period.

If the teams are still tied after OT Period; there will be a 1-minute break and the start of the 2nd OT will begin with the goalies will switch sides and there will be 5-minute Overtime 4 players verses 4 players Sudden Victory period.

If teams are still tied after 2nd OT; there will be 1-minute break, NO change of sides and a 5-minute 3rd OT with 3 players verses 3 player Sudden Victory period.

If play is still tied, there will be a shootout will be conducted as follows:

• A shootout is defined as a player attempting to score a goal and the opposing goalkeeper attempting to stop the shooter from scoring the goal.
• The referee shall call the two captains to the referee’s crease to flip a coin to determine which team takes the first shot. The home team shall call the coin toss. The winner of the coin toss will have the choice whether his/her team will shoot first or second.
• All goalkeepers and all players from both teams listed on the official game sheet shall be eligible to participate in the shootout.
• The goalkeepers will defend the net they were defending in the 3rd period.
• Any penalized player whose penalty had not been completed when the overtime period ended or who receives a penalty during a shootout procedure is not eligible to participate in any portion of the shootout procedure(s) and must remain in the penalty box.
• The shootout procedure shall begin with five (5) different individual shooters from each team taking alternate shots. The players do not need to be named beforehand.
• The goalkeepers from each team may be changed after each shot.
• The players of both teams will take the shots alternately until a decisive goal is scored, the remaining shots will not be taken.  (example- Team A players 1, 2 & 3 all score goals but Team B players 1, 2 & 3 do not, the score would be 3-0 in the shootout, the rest of the players would not need to take their turn because it would not change the outcome)
