Many of these pools contain the top 5 teams at the tournament, TG blk, YJ blue, SW blue, M&D blk, etc..... So what happens is only one of the five best teams in the tournament advance out of the pool play. You have very weak teams advancing out of weak pools into the playoffs. They should place the top teams atop each pool so the better teams can play in elimination games. Funny part of it is when the lower teams run their pool and make a playoff appearance, some parents think these teams are stronger than the top pool teams that may not make out of their top 5 team pool. And anyone crying CR schedule conspiracy, take a look at the schedules, they are in the same boat trying to advance out of a killer pool of top teams. No conspiracy there.

However, CR has 3-4 more teams in other pools that are almost certain to have a team in the playoff


Too funny no matter how it shakes out you crazies think CR had something to do w it. She must really love the 2019 TG black team , they play in the lower team pool and virtually walk into the finals
