THIS IS A D LEVEL TOURNAMENT.
The bottom 20%-40% of all teams at each age level would be considered D teams
Teams that most would describe as below average, weak, struggle with fundamentals, or not good would be considered D level teams. Some examples would be: An average organization's 4th best team or in some cases 3rd best team, a below average organization's 3rd best team or in some cases 2nd best team, or a below average Little League team. In general, any team that had the ability to cut players is not going to be eligible. NOT OPEN TO ANY ACADEMY TEAMS, REGARDLESS OF TEAM'S LEVEL WITHIN ACADEMY.
