Rules

*All teams that enter will be in the cup. It is the Open Cup after all.

*The first round proper will consist of 64 teams. If more than 64 teams enter the tournament, there will be a qualification round to determine the 64 teams in the first round proper. Teams in the qualification round will include those teams that are not from the established active divisions (AAPL, Brew City FA, Casbah, Division of Great Significance, USA vs World). Teams from the established active divisions will be given a bye for the qualification round if possible.

*Each round will be one leg - there will not be a return leg. It is a knockout tournament

*There will be a blind draw for each round so it will be a surprise on who you play as the rounds progress.

*The tournament will begin in week 1 - let's make week 1 mean something. It will either be the qualification round or the first round proper depending on the amount of teams that enter the tournament.

*Whoever scores the most points advances.
