Seeds were chosen at random, purely to determine the schedule, by Miss Trial (co-head referee) and Maulin Brando (New York Shock Exchange president) from a helmet. Teams will progress to Sundays bouts based on wins from the Saturday schedule. In the event of a tie points scored will be used to determine which team progresses. To determine which team play in the 1 and 2 semis a draw will take place after the final bout on Saturday on track 1.
And for your playing-along-at-home pleasure: an A4-sized printable bracket to fill in!
We’ll update the tables below throughout the tournament, keeping you up to speed as always!
