Was the determination of a champion by a point system approved by SCHSL? We were told by SCHSL that you now have to have a championship game. We were referred to the new definition in the rules:

"7. Definition of a tournament
A tournament is a series of contests in competition for a championship in which at least 1st & 2nd place is decided by a final contest between the two teams."

Tournaments are very important and can attract many good teams. They also have other benefits. It would be incredible for it to grow to 8 teams. My best wishes to Barnwell in their tournament.

This definition is in the "2008-2009 Rules and Regulations Governing Contests"

May I ask, is there something wrong with a point system? I know that there are other tournaments, that still use a point system I believe.

Fort Mill Invitational had the same problem. We were told that a point system would no longer be allowed to determine the champion. There must be a championship match. A point system could be used to determine which teams play for the championship.


Doin' it the hard way...

My question is why the SCHSL would have any reason to have a say in how any sponsored invitational tournament determines its champion. Total win/loss records, including tournament matches, can be used as region tiebreakers for playoff spots, but tournament championships mean nothing except in the tournament itself. Sounds like micromanaging for no good reason.
