Winter Invitational - Block Schedule Announced
Hotels Also Available Now through AllSportMarketing.com!!!
The NCRHA has completed its selection process for the 2005 Winter
Invitational to be held January 7-9 in Wixom, Michigan. Payment
from teams is still taking place. The Round Robin groups will be
announced at a later date, once all teams? payments have been
received. Your team will be notified once their payment is
received, so that you are able to make your travel and hotel plans as
early as possible. If you have not sent payment, or have not had
your school notify the Executive Director that the payment is being
processed, please do so immediately at [email protected].
20 teams will be participating in the event. Each team will play
the other three teams in their group before deciding who will advance
to the elimination round. There will be no overtime in Round
Robin; games will end in a tie. The elimination round will
consist of a single-elimination, 12-team tournament. The top two
teams from each group will advance, along with two wild card teams, to
the elimination round.
Games will start at 9:00 a.m. on Friday morning, so teams will want to
arrive on Thursday night, flying into the Detroit/Wayne Country
Metropolitan airport in the event of air travel. The tournament
will run until 12 p.m. noon on Sunday January 9th. Please make
your travel plans accordingly, giving yourself enough time after the
finals to make it to the airport with time to spare.
