• The shootout format will consist of the first five (5) players designated by each coach who will shoot until one team has a goal advantage. All five (5) players must shoot. If it is still tied then we will go to sudden death. If the first team scores, the second team will always get their last shot to try to tie the game. If the first team misses, and the second team scores, the game is over. You must use different shooters until there is nobody left on the bench. There is NO Sudden Death during the first three regular rounds of play.
