All teams finishing 1st or 2nd in each division will qualify for the State Championship to battle top teams from towns throughout Washington

Scores will be updated on the Tourney Machine application. All teams will need to provide a score keeper for each game so we can check scoresheets if there is a discrepancy in the reporting.

T-shirts will be sold at Eastmont Junior High School. They are silk screened while you wait. You get to design your items by choosing from a variety of decals, shirts, sweatshirts, sweat pants, etc.
