**IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT FOR U11 AND U12 TEAMS**
U11 and U12 teams will have the option of registering for one of two competition brackets within Directors Cup: the UNITED Bracket or the CLASSIC Bracket. Teams within one bracket will not play teams within the other bracket at any point of the Directors Cup competition. A UNITED Bracket State Champion will be crowned, as well as a CLASSIC Bracket State Champion.

The UNITED Bracket will consist of the top 8 Super II teams…all of which were previously seeded 1-8 in Presidents Cup…AND any other U11 and U12 teams who believe they are capable of competing at a higher level. The United Bracket will be the top level of competition for the U11 and U12 teams participating in Directors Cup.

The CLASSIC Bracket will consist of teams that historically Directors Cup was meant for. Most teams competing in the Classic Bracket will be lower level Super II and upper-mid level Division II teams.
