METHOD OF DETERMINING CHAMPION & DISTRICT PLAYOFF REPRESENTATIVES

Unless modified in 19-6A Team Sports Policy

A. Method of Determining District Championship Each team shall play every other team in the district twice. At the end of the season, the team with the highest percentage of district wins will be champion (point totals in soccer), next highest percentage of district wins will be runner up; next highest will be third place, etc.

If two or more teams are tied for first place, co-champions, or tri-champions will be declared.

B. Method of Determining Playoff Representatives

The top four teams with the highest winning percentage (point totals in soccer) as described above will advance to the playoffs. These teams will be ranked as Champion(1st), Runnerup (2nd), Third, and Fourth places. If teams are tied for a playoff position refer to policy “C”.

C. Ties Policy

If two or more teams are tied for a playoff representative position after ranking by winning percentage (point totals in soccer), the following methods will be used.

Method 1

Two teams are tied

One team wins both contests- If one team won both contests against the other team the winning team will receive the higher rank

Teams split the two contests-

If the both teams each won one contest against the other the following methods of breaking the tie will be followed:

Option A – Coaches may place teams in Playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by both Head Coaches. (ex. Team A and Team B finished tied for the 2nd and 3rd playoff positions. Team A and B Head Coaches agree that Team A will be 2nd ranked and Team B will be in 3rd ranked)

Teams split the two contests- continued

Revised 04/28/14

If there is no mutual agreement on the ranking of the teams by Option A the coaches may choose Option B to determine ranking.

Option B- Coaches may flip a coin to determine playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by both Head Coaches. The winner of the flip will receive the right to choose which of the playoff rankings they will receive. (ex. Team A and Team B finished tied for the 2nd

and 3rd playoff positions. Team A wins the flip. Team A chooses to receive the 3rd ranking. Team B would receive the 2nd ranking.)

If there is no mutual agreement on using Option B to determine ranking, then a playoff game will be scheduled.

Playoff Contest-The details of the playoff game (date, time, site, officials, etc.) will follow the U.I.L. guidelines for single playoff contests. The winner of the contest will receive the right to choose which of the playoff rankings they will receive. (ex. Team A and Team B finished tied for the 2nd and 3rd playoff positions. Team A wins the playoff contest. Team A chooses to receive the 3rd

ranking. Team B would receive the 2nd ranking.)

Method 2

Three or more teams are tied

Step One - Contests among the teams that are tied will be looked at as if it were a "Mini-District." The team within that group who has the highest winning percentage (point totals in soccer) will be given the highest rank.

- If a two way tie exists for the top ranking after ranking the teams by percentage, then Method 1 will be used to determine the top ranked team.

Step Two - Once a team is awarded the highest rank and removed from the

"Mini-District" pool, the tie breaking process will start anew using Methods #1 or #2 above.

Three or more teams are tied- continued Step Three -If after ranking the teams in a "Mini-District" format a tie exists between three or more teams the following methods of breaking the tie will be followed:

Revised 04/28/14

Option C – Coaches may place teams in Playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by all Head Coaches. (ex. Team A , Team B, and team C finished tied for the 1st, 2nd ,and 3rd playoff rankings. All Coaches agree that Team A gets the 1st ranking, Team B gets the 3rd ranking, and Team C gets the 2nd ranking)

If there is no mutual agreement on the ranking of the teams by Option C the coaches may choose Option D to determine ranking.

Option D- Coaches may have a random selection process such as flipping coins or drawing lots to determine playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by all Head Coaches. The winner of the random process will receive the right to choose which of the playoff rankings they will receive. (ex. Team A ,Team B, and Team C finished tied for the 2nd , 3rd , and 4th playoff rankings after looking at the “Mini- District Rankings”. Team A wins the random selection process. Team A chooses to receive the 3rd ranking. Team B and team C would also be ranked by the chosen random selection process.

If there is no mutual agreement on using Option D to determine ranking, then a series of playoff games will be scheduled.

Playoff Contest-The details of the playoff games (date, time, site, officials, etc.) will follow the U.I.L. guidelines for single playoff contests.

Three team Playoff

-In a three team playoff scenario one team will receive a bye using a random selection process. A maximum of two contests will be played to determine playoff rankings. (ex. Teams A, B, & C are tied. Team A receives the bye. Team B & C will play a contest to determine a winner. The loser of the contest between B & C has the right to the third choice of playoff rankings.

Three or more teams are tied- continued

Three team Playoff continued

The winner of the game between B & C and team A will then have the Choice of Option A or Option B. If there is no mutual agreement then the winner of the playoff contest between the winner of B & C and team A will have the first choice of playoff ranking. The loser will have the second choice of playoff ranking.

Revised 04/28/14

Four team Playoff -In a four team playoff scenario teams will be matched using a random selection method. There will be a maximum two rounds (four contests) to determine playoff rankings. The first round contests should be at similar times The winners of the first contests and the losers of the first contests will be matched in second round contests. Both the winners and losers may chose Option A or Option B to determine choices of playoff rankings. If no mutual agreement can be reached the winners of the contests in the second round will have the higher choices of playoff rankings.(ex. Teams A, B, C, & D are tied. Team A plays team B. Team C plays team D. Teams A & C win the first round contests. Team A & C will be matched against each other and Teams B & D will be matched against each other in the second round. The winner of the contest between A & C will have the first choice of playoff ranking. The loser of the contest between A & C will have the second choice of playoff ranking. The winner of the contest between B & D will have the third choice of playoff ranking. The loser of the contest between B & D has the right to the fourth choice of playoff rankings. Second round contests that will not determine a playoff ranking will not be played.

Five or more team Playoff

A game that reaches halftime or beyond before the stoppage of play will be determined a final score. If the score is a tie it will be recorded as a ½ win and ½ loss. Note: The restart time of any suspended game on Saturday night

should be set so that the end of the first half ends no later than 12:00am.




METHOD OF DETERMINING DISTRICT FOOTBALL PLAYOFF REPRESENTATIVES NOTE: A coin flip is the least desirable method of determining playoff representatives.

Every effort will be made to determine playoff representatives by what was done on the field.

Method of Determining District Football Championship

Each team shall play every other team in the district. At the end of the season, the team with the highest percentage of district wins will be champion, next highest percentage of district wins will be runner up; next highest will be third place, next highest will be fourth place.


Method of Determining Playoff Representatives

The top four teams per district advance to the playoffs. The qualifying schools with the largest enrollment automatically advance to

Division I bracket. The remaining qualifying two schools advance into Division II bracket.

When seeding the two teams within the either division, the team with the higher winning percentage will be listed as the "winner" and the team with the lower percentage as the "runner up."

Enrollment figures used for the official reclassification and realignment procedure in October 2013 will be used to determine Division I and Division II representatives.

o Seven Lakes………. 3765 o Morton Ranch…… 3441 o Cinco Ranch……….3256.5 o Katy……………………3219.5 o Mayde Creek……..3115 o Taylor…………………2979.5 o Jesuit………………….1872 o Tompkins…………...1672




Ties Policy

If two or more teams are tied for a playoff representative position after ranking by winning percentage, the following methods will be used.

Method 1 Two teams are tied

The winner of the contest between the two teams will receive the higher rank.

Method 2 Three or more teams are tied

Step One

Contests among the teams that are tied will be looked at as if it were a "Mini-District." The team in that group with the highest winning percentage will be given the highest rank.

If a two way tie exists for the top ranking after ranking the teams by percentage, then the winner of the contest between the two teams will receive the higher rank.

Once a team is awarded the highest rank and removed from the "Mini-District" pool, the tie breaking process will start anew using Methods #1 or #2 above.

Step Two

If after ranking the teams in a "Mini-District" format a tie exists between three or more teams, a "Positive and Negative Point Differential" will be used to determine the highest ranking team. (A maximum of 21 positive or negative points can be accumulated in any one game.)

If a two way tie exists for the top ranking after ranking the teams by "point differential", then the winner of the contest between the two teams will receive the higher rank.

Once a team is awarded the highest rank and removed from the "Mini-District" pool, the tie breaking process will start anew using methods #1 or #2.

Step Three

If after ranking the teams in a "Mini-District" and a "Positive and Negative Point Differential" format, a tie exists between three or more teams, a coin flip will be used to determine the highest ranking team.

The coin-flipping method will be determined by mutual agreement of the schools involved.

Once a team is awarded the highest rank and removed from the "Mini-District" pool, the tie breaking process will start anew using Methods #1 or #2.

SOCCER POLICIES

2015/2016

I. METHOD FOR DETERMINING DISTRICT CHAMPION AND TIE BREAKER

A. District Champion and runner-ups will be determined by a point system. Three points

for a win, one point for a tie, and zero points for a loss.

B. If TWO teams tie for either first, second, third or fourth place, the following order of

procedures will be used to determine the placement:

a. Head to head: If one team has come away from the head to head match up with

more points (a win and a tie or two wins), that team will be declared the winner

of that tie.

b. If teams are still tied, then **goal differential (see below) between the teams

involved will be used to determine placement (3 goal maximum per game).

c. If both teams are tied in goal differential then a coin flip will determine

placement for advancement into the state playoffs. Coaches can mutually agree

on seeding in playoffs at this stage in place of the coin toss. However, both

coaches need to be in agreement with this decision. If there is any discrepancy,

the coin toss will take place. Winner of the coin toss will choose the seed.

d. If teams are still tied after head to head and goal differential then a playoff game

will be played to determine who advances.

C. If THREE or MORE teams tie for either first, second, third or fourth place, the following

order of procedures will be used to determine the placement:

a. Head to Head comparison between the teams involved will be used first. Using

the point system described in A above.

b. If any team is still tied, then **goal differential between the teams involved will

be used to determine placement (3 goal maximum per game). If still tied, move

to step c.

c. If teams are still tied, Coaches may agree to place teams in playoff ranking, if no

mutual agreement on the ranking of the teams can be reached then coaches will

draw lots/coin flip to determine playoff ranking.

d. If teams are still tied after head to head and goal differential then a playoff game

will be played to determine who advances.

**Goal Differential Explained: The difference in goals scored versus allowed in a given game. We allow

a maximum of only 3 goals to be added or subtracted from goal differential per match. Example: If team

A wins 6-2 over team B, team A would be assigned +3 and team B would be assigned -3 for that match.

II. ALL-DISTRICT SELECTION

A. All District selection meetings will be held at the coaches’ discretion.

III. OFFICIALS (UIL guidelines will be followed)

A. A minimum of a two man system is desired for each district game.

B. If the referees are not present, the game will not be delayed longer than 45 minutes

waiting for the officials to arrive.

B. Ball Management

team.

V. GAME TIMES AND DATES

A. A team’s warm-up time on the game field will be determined by the duration between

the end time of the JV game and the scheduled start time of the varsity game. (For

example, if the JV game ends at 6:25 and the varsity start time is 7:00pm, teams may

warm-up for 35 minutes on the game field. However if the JV game ends at 6:45 and the

varsity start time is 7:00pm, teams may only warm-up on the game field for 20 minutes,

therefore the game would start at 7:05). Every attempt will be made to start the varsity

game at the scheduled time. If your team requires more time to warm-up then you may

warm-up on a practice field during the JV game. All player introductions and special

events (Parent’s Night) should be taken care of during the warm-up time.

B. We will always allow a 20 minute warm-up for varsity games however; you must

include player introductions and special events into this time allotment.

with the JVA and Varsity games.

D. Game Times for 2015-2016 Season for teams playing JV and Varsity:

Tuesday and Friday – 5:00 and 7:00pm.

VI. MAKE-UP GAMES

A. All varsity district games will be played.

B. A game may be rescheduled only if field/playing conditions make safe play impossible.

This will be determined by the officiating team at the site, or mutual consent by both

coaches.

replayed in entirety. Once a game reaches half time it is considered a complete game.

D. If more than one game is lost due to a natural disaster, games will be played on the

open dates at the end of the season.

District 19-AAAAAA Softball Policies

2015-2016

I. METHOD OF DETERMINING DISTRICT CHAMPION AND TIE-BREAKER

A. Method of Determining District Championship

Each team shall play every other team in the district twice. At the end of the season, the team with the highest

percentage of district wins will be champion, next highest percentage of district wins will be runner up; next

highest will be third place, etc.



The top four teams with the highest winning percentage as described above will advance to the playoffs. These

teams will be ranked as Champion (1st), Runnerup (2nd), Third, and Fourth places. If teams are tied for a playoff

position refer to policy “C”.

C. Ties Policy

If two or more teams are tied for a playoff representative position after ranking by winning percentage (point

totals in soccer), the following methods will be used.

Method 1 – Two teams are tied

One team wins both contests- If one team won both contests against the other team the winning team will

receive the higher rank

Teams split the two contests- If both teams each won one contest against the other the following methods of

breaking the tie will be followed:

Option A – Coaches may place teams in Playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by both Head Coaches. (Ex.

Team A and Team B finished tied for the 2nd and 3rd playoff positions. Team A and B Head Coaches agree that

Team A will be 2nd ranked and Team B will be in 3rd ranked)


If there is no mutual agreement on the ranking of the teams by Option A the coaches may choose Option to

determine ranking.

Option B- Coaches may flip a coin to determine playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by both Head

Coaches. The winner of the flip will receive the right to choose which of the playoff rankings they will receive.

(Ex. Team A and Team B finished tied for the 2nd and 3rd playoff positions. Team A wins the flip. Team A

chooses to receive the 3rd ranking. Team B would receive the 2nd ranking.)

If there is no mutual agreement on using Option B to determine ranking, then a playoff game will be scheduled.

1

Playoff Contest - The details of the playoff game (date, time, site, officials, etc.) will follow the UIL guideline

for single playoff contests. The winner of the contest will be awarded the higher seed.

Method 2 – Three or more teams are tied

Step One - Contests among the teams that are tied will be looked at as if it were a "Mini-District." The team

within that group who has the highest winning percentage will be given the highest rank.

- If a two way tie exists for the top ranking after ranking the teams by percentage, then Method 1 will be used to

determine the top ranked team.

Step Two- Once a team is awarded the highest rank and removed from the "Mini-District" pool, the tie breaking

process will start anew using Methods #1 or #2 above.

Step Three-If after ranking the teams in a "Mini-District" format a tie exists between three or more teams the

following methods of breaking the tie will be followed:

Option C – Coaches may place teams in Playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by all Head Coaches.(Ex.

Team A, Team B, and team C finished tied for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd playoff rankings. All Coaches agree that

Team A gets the 1st ranking, Team B gets the 3rd ranking, and Team C gets the 2nd ranking)

If there is no mutual agreement on the ranking of the teams by Option C the coaches may choose Option D

to determine ranking.

Option D- Coaches may have a random selection process such as flipping coins or drawing lots to

determine playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by all Head Coaches. The winner of the random process

will receive the right to choose which of the playoff rankings they will receive. (Ex. Team A ,Team B, and

Team C finished tied for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th playoff rankings after looking at the “Mini- District

Rankings”. Team A wins the random selection process. Team A chooses to receive the 3rd ranking. Team

B and team C would also be ranked by the chosen random selection process.

If there is no mutual agreement on using Option D to determine ranking, then a series of single elimination

playoff games will be scheduled.

Playoff Contest-The details of the playoff games (date, time, site, officials, etc.) will follow the U.I.L.

guidelines for single playoff contests.

Three team Playoff-In a three team playoff scenario one team will receive a bye using a random selection

process. A maximum of two contests will be played to determine playoff rankings. (Ex. Teams A, B, & C are

tied. Team A receives the bye. Team B & C will play a contest to determine a winner. The loser of the contest

between B & C has the right to the third choice of playoff rankings. However, if there are only two playoff

spots available, then the loser of B and C will be eliminated from playoff seeding.

The winner of the game between B & C and team A will then have the Choice of Option A or Option B. If

there is no mutual agreement then the winner of the playoff contest between the winner of B & C and team A

will have the first choice of playoff ranking. The loser will have the second choice of playoff ranking.

Four team Playoff - In a four team playoff scenario, teams will be matched using a random selection method.

There will be a maximum two rounds (four contests) to determine playoff rankings. The first round contests

should be at similar times. The winners of the first contests and the losers of the first contests will be matched

2

in second round contests. Both the winners and losers may chose Option A or Option B to determine choices of

playoff rankings. If no mutual agreement can be reached the winners of the contests in the second round will

have the higher choices of playoff rankings.(ex. Teams A, B, C, & D are tied. Team A plays team B. Team C

plays team D. Teams A & C win the first round contests. Team A & C will be matched against each other and

Teams B & D will be matched against each other in the second round. The winner of the contest between A &

C will have the first choice of playoff ranking. The loser of the contest between A & C will have the second

choice of playoff ranking. The winner of the contest between B & D will have the third choice of playoff

ranking. The loser of the contest between B & D has the right to the fourth choice of playoff rankings. Second

round contests that will not determine a playoff ranking will not be played.

Five or more team Playoff -If five or more teams are tied for a playoff position a random selection process will

be used to reduce the number of teams remaining to four. Once the four teams have been established the tie

breaking process will return to “Step Three” in “Method Two”

METHOD OF DETERMINING CHAMPION & DISTRICT PLAYOFF REPRESENTATIVES

A. Method of Determining District Championship Each team shall play every other team in the district twice. At the end of the season, the team with the highest percentage of district wins will be champion; the

next highest percentage of district wins will be runner up; next highest will be

third place, etc.

If two or more teams are tied for first place, co-champions, or tri-

champions will be declared.


The top four teams with the highest winning percentage as described above will

advance to the playoffs. These teams will be ranked as Champion (1st), Runner-up

(2nd), Third, and Fourth places. If teams are tied for a playoff position refer to policy “C”.

C. Ties Policy

If two or more teams are tied for a playoff representative position after ranking by

winning percentage, the following methods will be used.

Method 1

Two teams are tied

One team wins both contests-

If one team won both contests against the other team the winning team

will receive the higher rank

Teams split the two contests-

If the both teams each won one contest against the other the following

methods of breaking the tie will be followed:

Option A – Coaches may place teams in Playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by both Head Coaches. (Ex. Team A and Team B finished

tied for the 2nd and 3rd playoff positions. Team A and B Head Coaches

agree that Team A will be 2nd ranked and Team B will be in 3rd ranked)


If there is no mutual agreement on the ranking of the teams by Option A

the coaches may choose Option B to determine ranking.

Option B- Coaches may flip a coin to determine playoff ranking, if

mutually agreed upon by both Head Coaches. The winner of the flip will

receive the right to choose which of the playoff rankings they will receive.

(Ex. Team A and Team B finished tied for the 2nd and 3rd playoff

positions. Team A wins the flip. Team A chooses to receive the 3rd

ranking. Team B would receive the 2nd ranking.)

If there is no mutual agreement on using Option B to determine ranking,

then a playoff game will be scheduled.

Playoff Contest-The details of the playoff game (date, time, site, officials,

etc.) will follow the U.I.L. guidelines for single playoff contests. The

winner of the contest will receive the right to choose which of the playoff

rankings they will receive. (Ex. Team A and Team B finished tied for the

2nd and 3rd playoff positions. Team A wins the playoff contest. Team A

chooses to receive the 3rd ranking. Team B would receive the 2nd

ranking.)

Method 2

Three or more teams are tied

Step One

- Contests among the teams that are tied will be looked at as if the teams

involved were a "Mini-District." The team within that group who has the

highest winning percentage will be given the highest rank.

- If a two way tie exists for the top ranking after ranking the teams by

percentage, then Method 1 will be used to determine the top ranked team.

Step Two

- Once a team is awarded the highest rank and removed from the "Mini-

District" pool, the tie breaking process will start anew using Methods #1

or #2 above for the remaining teams.


Step Three -If after ranking the teams in a "Mini-District" format a tie exists between

three or more teams the following methods of breaking the tie will be

followed:

Option C – Coaches may place teams in playoff ranking, if mutually agreed upon by all Head Coaches. (Ex. Team A, Team B, and team C

finished tied for the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd playoff rankings. All Coaches agree

that Team A gets the 1st ranking, Team B gets the 3rd ranking, and Team C gets the 2nd ranking)

If there is no mutual agreement on the ranking of the teams by Option C

the coaches may choose Option D to determine ranking.

Option D- Coaches may have a random selection process such as flipping

coins or drawing lots to determine playoff ranking, if mutually agreed

upon by all Head Coaches. The winner of the random process will receive

the right to choose which of the playoff rankings they will receive. (Ex.

Team A, Team B, and Team C finished tied for the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th playoff

rankings after looking at the “Mini- District Rankings”. Team A wins the

random selection process. Team A chooses to receive the 3rd ranking. Team B and team C would also be ranked by the chosen random selection process.

If there is no mutual agreement on using Option D to determine ranking,

then a series of playoff games will be scheduled.

Playoff Contest-The details of the playoff games (date, time, site,

officials, etc.) will follow the U.I.L. guidelines for single playoff contests.

Three Team Playoff (If tie still exists after “Mini-District” ranking)

-In a three team playoff scenario one team will receive a bye using

a random selection process. A maximum of two contests will be

played to determine playoff rankings.

(Ex. Teams A, B, & C are tied. Team A receives the bye. Team B

& C will play a contest to determine a winner. The loser of the

contest between B & C has the right to the third choice of playoff

rankings.


Three team Playoff continued

The winner of the game between B & C and team A will then have

the Choice of Option A or Option B. If there is no mutual

agreement then the winner of the playoff contest between the

winner of B & C and team A will have the first choice of playoff

ranking. The loser will have the second choice of playoff ranking.

Four Team Playoff (If tie still exists after “Mini-District” ranking)

-In a four team playoff scenario teams will be matched using a

random selection method. There will be a maximum two rounds

(four contests) to determine playoff rankings. The first round

contests should be at similar times

The winners of the first contests and the losers of the first contests

will be matched in second round contests. Both the winners and

losers may chose Option A or Option B to determine choices of

playoff rankings. If no mutual agreement can be reached the

winners of the contests in the second round will have the higher

choices of playoff rankings.(ex. Teams A, B, C, & D are tied.

Team A plays team B. Team C plays team D. Teams A & C win

the first round contests. Team A & C will be matched against each

other and Teams B & D will be matched against each other in the

second round. The winner of the contest between A & C will have

the first choice of playoff ranking. The loser of the contest

between A & C will have the second choice of playoff ranking.

The winner of the contest between B & D will have the third

choice of playoff ranking. The loser of the contest between B & D

has the right to the fourth choice of playoff rankings. Second

round contests that will not determine a playoff ranking will not be

played.

Five or More Team Playoff (if tie still exists after “Mini-District” ranking)

-If five or more teams are tied for a playoff position a random

selection process will be used to reduce the number of teams

remaining to four. Once the four teams have been established the

tie breaking process will return to “Step Three” in “Method Two”
