Lol. Went alright actually. There were originally 12 kids who entered, but some kids were sick on the day so we were cut down to about 8. Luckily, another 8 or so kids wanted to play so there were 16 kids in total. There were four teams, and every team played each other once, so six games in all. After the six games, the 3rd and 4th placed teams played against each other. The winner would meet 2nd placed in the semi, and the winner of that match would meet 1st place in the final.
Overall, it was a great tournament. The kids have really shown great development. They have clearly developed passng, ball handling, and cooperation skills. It is a great delight to see that all the hard work that I and the kids have put in has paid dividends.
Below are the scores. Some scores are absolute blowouts, because I had to edit the teams over again because of the kids who were sick, meaning some teams were unevenly balanced (something I did not see then lol).
GAME 1: Team 1 beat Team 2 by 16-12
GAME 2: Team 4 beat Team 3 by 40-0
GAME 3: Team 1 beat Team 3 by 40-8
GAME 4: Team 2 beat Team 4 by 28-20
GAME 5: Team 1 beat Team 4 by 28-24
GAME 6: Team 2 beat Team 3 by 36-12
Points after regular matches:
Team 1: 3 wins, 6 points
Team 2: 2 wins, 4 points
Team 3: 0 wins, 0 points
Team 4: 1 win, 2 points
3rd place vs 4th place
GAME 7: Team 3 beat Team 4 by 28-24
Winner of game 7 vs 2nd place
GAME 8: Team 2 beat Team 3 by 76-20
Winner of game 8 vs 1st place
GAME 9: Team 2 beat Team 1 by 32-28 in extra time
