Atom thru Midget playoffs break the teams in each division into two pools - AB for the top finishers (8, 10, 12) and CD for the remainder. Teams that win their first series in the AB and CD pools will compete for A or C championships respectively. Teams that lose their first series will similarly compete for B or D championships. The second and subsequent playoff rounds are elimination series.
Best of luck to all teams in the playoffs.
