Division 1 East Rugby Tournament, Porvoo
Date: Saturday 19th May 2012
Address: Kokon grass pitches, Jääkiekkotie, 06400 Porvoo
First game to kick off at 11.00.
Changing facilities will be in the indoor sports hall (2nd building) not the ice hockey rink (1st building). There is a car park between the two buildings.
All clubs to be at Kokon latest 10.30 to ensure all official match papers can be reviewed and accepted by the referees. At this time there will be an agreement on the match formats: are there enough players for more than 10 a-side games; enough for only 10 a-side games; not enough for 10 a-side so 7 a-side games to be played. Based on the format of the teams the decision will be made as to how long each match will last.
Assuming each team has sufficient players, the initial idea would be to play 2 * 15 minutes. Alternatively 2 * 12 minutes. Each team will play all other teams (4 matches).
A match win will give 3 points to the winner. A draw in any match will stay as a draw and each side will receive 2 points. The winner of the tournament will be the team with the most points. If there is a tie the result between the two teams will reveal the winner. If this was a draw, the tries in their match will count, and if this is still a draw, the overall tries scored by either club during the tournament will count. If after all this the result is still a draw, kicks at goal will be the deciding factor!
