Information

B.A. Baracus RFC is pleased to announce that we will be holding our 4th Annual Halloween Tens Tournament in San Francisco on Saturday, October 30th, 2010.

The following info is based upon last year, and is subject to change:

Format

This tournament is 10-a-side Rugby. For more details on how playing Ten's is different from Seven's or Fifteen's, look at the Rules section.

The tournament will be divided into two segments: round robin pool play in the morning and championship and consolation brackets in the afternoon. The exact number of games each team will play will depend on the total number of teams in the tournament, however each team will play at least 3 (and more than likely 4) matches.

Performance in pool play will determine seeding and eligibility in the afternoon brackets using the following scoring system:
  • Three Points for a Win
  • One Point for a Draw
  • One Bonus Point for scoring four or more tries in one match
Tie breakers will be as follows:
  1. Point Differential
  2. Number of Tries Scored
  3. Flip of a Coin
