Confirmed Crossover Match-Ups

Weekend of Oct 2, 2010

Philadelphia (North #3) @ NOVA (South #1)
Village Lions (North #2) @ Atlanta (South #2)
Orlando (South #3) @ Providence (North #1)

The winner of each crossover match will advance to the CR3 Championship weekend, plus a wild card. Teams will be ranked for CR3 championship day-1 match-ups based on their crossover performance (determined by - in order - best point differential, best try differential, most points scored, most tries scored, ranking from league season). Therefore the losing team with the best crossover results will be the wild card.

For both the crossovers and the CR3 championships, the following applies to matches tied at the end of regulation:
  • If the match is tied in regulation, then there will be a 5 minute water break followed by overtime.
  • There will be a coin toss during the water break to determine side and kickoff. Teams will alternate side and kickoff at the start of every overtime period.
  • Overtime begins with TWO 10-minute periods. BOTH 10 minute periods will be fully played, regardless of scoring.
  • There is a 2-minute water break at the end of every overtime period.
  • If one team is ahead at the end of the second overtime period, then they are the winner of the match.
  • If the match is still tied after two overtime periods, the match will proceed to sudden death.
  • Sudden death consists of 10-minute periods with a change of sides and kickoffs after each period. Note: the teams merely switch sides and kickoff to the begin the 3rd OT period which begins sudden death; there is no additional coin toss.
  • The first team to score in sudden death is the winner of the match.
