The Gryphon Cup Tournament

This is a fun side track to get us through the middle dead spot of the Season.  This tournament will in no way affect the overall progress toward the Playoffs.  Nor will the results affect the Playoff seeds.  This is just something for fun. 

The tournament will be run through the Guelph Connection Website. 

The tournament will run from the second week in November through to the last week before Christmas each year.  Dates will be determined each year. 

The teams will be divided into 4 divisions of 5 teams, based upon standings on the first day of the tournament. 

Each team will play a round robin Match up verses another in their division.  Amassing an overall round robin record.

Each Match up will last 4 days (20 round robin days total)

Victory in each Match up will go to the team with the most fantasy points accumulated during the dates of the Matchup.
