will move on to the semi finals, crossover. The winner from each semi-final game will then play in
the Divisional Championship game. The Divisional Champions are then invited to participate at
their respective International Silver Stick Finals tournament.
Each team will play 3 games against the teams within their own pool. The teams will be ranked
from 1 st to 4 th , based on points from Round Robin Play.
The teams that finish 1 st and 2 nd in each pool will play a crossover vs opposite pool (1 st vs 2 nd ) in a
