Wildcard Draw

After the final week of play, the League Office in the presence of at least one witness, will conduct the wildcard draw. Those teams not seeded in the playoffs are eligible for the draw. Teams will lose eligibility for the wildcard draw if they are past due any amount, they forfeited more than five (5) individual matches in the session or are judged ineligible by the League Operator for some other reason such as sportsmanship issues.
