Tournament Information

Welcome to ODOT's Basketball tournament of the year for 2010. Registration is now open. We are planning on having a 16-team bracket. Currently only 11 teams have confirmed. Please see Tournament Documents to fill-out your forms and submit them. If you KNOW YOU ARE GOING TO SUBMIT A TEAM, please email us so we can reserve a spot for you. Email us at moc.liamG|yllaRnaCniTnogerO#moc.liamG|yllaRnaCniTnogerO ODOT Tin Can Rally

This is the 19th annual 'Tin-Can' Rally. It is called that because we are raising funds for the Governor's Food Drive to help feed the hungry in Oregon. All proceeds go towards a 'pool', in which teams select which food bank their percentage goes towards. For example, the top 4 teams get to choose where the majority of the tournament 'pooled' proceeds go (e.g. food bank of their choice). Typically 90% of the proceeds are split between the top 4 teams. An example of this breakdown is 1st place = 35%, 2nd place = 25%, 3rd place = 20%, and 4th place = 10%. The remaining 10% is divided equally amongst the other teams.

Practice Information

There will be no practice gym this year.

Tournament Schedule

FRIDAY Groups (like World Cup qualifier): SEE ABOVE

FRIDAY REF's & Captains meeting at 5:30pm upstairs at THE HOOP on May 7th. Brief discussion then start games for 6:30pm Tip-off.

Friday's games are only for qualifying purposes and to get a ranking. The point differential will be the tie-breaker for teams with the same record. If the point differential is the same and they have a tied record, a coin will be flipped.

Also, games on court 1 may be CHANGED to court 5, depending on the automated scoreboard and court condition. If this happens, we will update these documents.

SATURDAY:

Round-Robin double elimination tournament style (except if one finalist is undefeated, then only one final game played).

FINAL SCHEDULE Team rankings to be determined on Friday night
WILL BE POSTED HERE
