NASA Tophat Tournament Series

Tournament Dates

Held in the winter, the 2021/22 edition will be held on December 11, 2021 and January 22, 2022


Tournament Details

Number of Games:

Everyone will be guaranteed 3 games minimum.   


We will use 1 of 2 formats depending on the number of teams signed up and the amount of crossover needed to get meaningful games.  


1. Round robin and a championship

2. Round robin and points winner.  This is the most likely format as some brackets will need crossover to get the most meaningful games.   


Schedules:

Schedules will be posted Wednesday or Thursday before each event.  We will send google doc to all registered players before the event with all field locations and field numbers. 


Team names are very important.  I will send an online google doc multiple times the week before each event for you to get your team name and players for each team.  This is how I will schedule the games.  You do not need to send me emails with teams and players.  Once you get the sheet anyone from your team can add team name and players names.  I will also send current registered players on this online document.   


For any questions please contact Mike Gailey at mike.gailey@nasa-ga.org.
