Post Season Tie Breaking Rules (tournament seeding):
Because DYBA is a Recreational League and not the NBA we have a few subtle tie breaking rule adjustments (mainly we don't use point differentials to break multi-team ties).    We don't use point differential because we don't encourage running up the score (this happens in AAU) and because not all scores are reported exactly accurate ie 1-0 sometimes).

 

2 Team Tie

-----------------

Head to Head record with the teams involved.   If the teams have split their regular season games,  then a coin flip is done to determine which team receives the better seed.

 

3 or More Teams Tie

---------------------------------

Winning percentage of games played between the teams involved in the tie will be the first tie breaker. 

 

If there is a positive difference in winning percentage by any of the teams then that team would receive the better seed.   If there is a negative difference in winning percentage by any one team then that team would receive the worst seed available of the teams tied.     If two teams remain after a seed has been determined (positive or negative),  then head to head (2 team tie) rules apply.   If multiple teams are still tied after winning percentage is considered then the next tie breaker will apply.

 

If winning percentage amongst the teams involved in the tie does not break the log jam,  then random numbers will be drawn by league officials to assign the seeds (preferably with coaches present but if coaches can't be present, certainly with multiple witnesses).

 

Examples:

 

=========================================================

 

Example #1,  If there a six teams in a league (A, B, C, D, E, F) and teams B,C,D are involved in a tie at the end of the regular season for seeds 2, 3, 4 ,  then the winning percentage for each of those teams is calculated for the games played between, B,C,D for the season.  

 

For Games played between B, C, D only.

 

B  3 - 1

C  2 - 2

D  2 - 2

 

Therefore,  B receives Seed Number #2.    Leaving C and D in a two way tie.   If team C was 2-0 against D during the regular season,  they would receive Seed #3 and D would receive #4.   If C and D had split the regular season then a coin flip would be required to determine their seed.

 

==========================================================

 

Example #2,  If there a six teams in a league (A, B, C, D, E, F) and teams B,C,D are involved in a tie at the end of the regular season for seeds 2, 3, 4 ,  then the winning percentage for each of those teams is calculated for the games played between, B,C,D for the season.  

 

For Games played between B, C, D only.

 

B  2 - 2

C  2 - 2

D  1 - 3

 

Therefore,  D receives Seed Number #4.    Leaving B and C in a two way tie.   If team C was 2 - 0 against B during the regular season,  they would receive Seed #2 and B would receive #3.   If B and C had split the regular season then a coin flip would be required to determine their seed.

 

==========================================================

 

If there are 3 or more teams tied for a seed and cannot be separated by the above tie breaking process then seed #’s will be drawn from a hat.

 

All coin flips and seed drawings will be done under the supervision of the DYBA board and a minimum of 1 witness (if not more).
