The schedule format will be different than last season. This season the Over-40 Division consists of 4 teams. Each team will play 8 games, 6 regular season games and 2 post season games. Each team will play the other 3 teams twice and automatically qualify to play in the Semi Final. Placement will be determined by regular season points standings. Semi-Final 1 will be 1st place vs 4th place and Semi-Final 2 will be 2nd place vs 3rd place. Each Semi-Final and Final matches must have a winner. In the event of a tie, 2 overtime periods of 7 1/2 minutes will be played (no golden goals). If still tied a shootout will provide the result. The Final will be the winners of Semi-Final 1 and Semi-Final 2 while the 3rd place game will be the losers of the 2 semi-final matches.
I prefer this format. Means that even if you are last at end of the season you still have a chance to win.
