The George Watts Montessori School Spring Carnival and Ga-Ga Ball Tournament is just six weeks away. It will take place on Saturday, April 25, from 11am - 2pm on the George Watts playground.
GAGA Ball Registration is OPEN! You can register for the Ga-Ga Ball tournament using this form.
If you are new to the tournament, or need a refresher, here are the basics for the tournament:
1) Teams of two can register anytime between now and April 15;
2) Each team must have at least one current Watts student. The second team member can be a child or adult:
3) Teams are randomly assigned two initial games. Each game has four teams of two. During each game, individuals are given scores based on when they are eliminated. The sum of those scores is then added up. The top scoring teams across the two round robin games advance to the knockout round:
4) Teams are seeded in the knockout round based on the highest number of points earned during the round robin games. In the past, the two 32 teams have advanced into the knockout round, but the actual number of teams depends on the number of registrations;
5) During the knockout round, the top two scoring teams advance. In the event of a tie, the team with the latest player in will advance. For example, if two teams have 14 points each, and Team A had the last player in the game, then Team A would advance:
6) We hold open a couple of slots for day-of registrations, but we will only accept a limited number in order to keep the round robin matches balanced. If you want to play, please make sure you register by the deadline.
