Teams
This tournament is open to ANY and ALL adult kickball teams with no previous qualifications necessary to participate. The Coed Division plays on Saturday and the Women's Division plays on Sunday. Teams who compete in this event have a chance to qualify for Circuit Championship Weekend in November.
Team Cap
This event has a maximum capacity of 15 teams. The first 15 teams to reach the 10 player roster minimum (including 4 females) will be in for the event.
Event Rules
All Circuit Events utilize the Official Rulebook of Kickball365.
Prize Pool
Kickball365 will award prizes approximately up to two (2) weeks after the completion of this Circuit Event. Total amounts are based on the final number of teams participating.
Team Seeding
After registration closes, each team in attendance will be assigned a tournament seed. Each seed will be based on a teams averaged ranks (i.e. 1st, 2nd, 3rd) in each of the individual ranking systems ELO, FIFA, and RPI to generate their tournament ranking. New Teams without enough data to make such a determination will be seeded at the bottom to complete the seeding. From this initial seeding, each team will be put into a bin with similar seeded teams. The captains in the first bin will draw opponents from the second bin of teams into their pool. Then those second bin captains get to draw the third team in their pool from the next bin and so on until all pools have been finalized by captains. By contrast, the CIRCUIT SCORING SYSTEM (CSS), which awards points to registered Circuit Teams solely on their performance at Circuit Events, will be used to seed teams at the Circuit Championship Weekend.
Player Eligibility
You must be at least 21 years old (as of the posted event date) to participate in this tournament and the social events planned during the weekend. You must be in good health, have adequate health insurance, and be physically prepared to compete in this event. Kickball365 reserves the right to request photo identification at the time of check-in.
Player Registration
All Captains, Players, and Non-Playing Coaches are required to register themselves online prior to the posted registration deadlines (at 1159pm EST/859pm PST). We do not accept offline payments of any kind and cannot manually add anyone to your team if they failed to register on time.
New Player Referral Program
If you have any friends, close contacts, co-workers, or anyone else who has never played in a Circuit Event before, they will receive 50% OFF ENTRY to their first event. This program does not have a new player cap per team per tournament. Players must register using the code NEWKICKBALLER365 at the time of registration. The discount cannot be added retroactively to any registration. This option for one-time use only, meaning a female playing in two (2) events in the same weekend can only use the code for one (1) of those Circuit Events.

They will receive $35 OFF their ENTRY using the discount code NONPLAYINGCOACH365 before the same player registration deadlines. This includes signing the same waiver that all players must sign. As a reminder, a Non-Playing Coach is allowed to engage with the Game Referees ONLY if they are wearing the required Captain Band during the games.

Check-in begins one (1) hour prior to the start of the first game. Failure to properly check-in may result in a yellow card for the player and/or team captain.
Mandatory Morning Meetings (Typically 30 minutes before Start Time)
Approximately 30 minutes prior to the start of games for the day, Team Captains, Non-Playing Coaches, and Referees are required to attend a brief meeting at HQ. Ground rules for the day will be covered and you will have an opportunity to ask questions in an interactive environment.
