Please also note the following:

• Long-term we want Regionals/Playoffs OUT of August, but feel this is the only fair solution in 2022 due to WUCC disrupting many club rosters. Please see this document for 2023 season plans.

• In 2022, we may provide a contingency plan for WUCC-teams whose Playoffs attendance is unfairly affected by travel complications caused by Covid-19.

These events will follow the UKU Tournament Rules
