2024 Chapman Cup
The Chapman Cup will begin on March 17 with all games at Kino. The Open Division is divided into two brackets of 6 so all teams will participate. Except for O40, all divisions will use an 8-team tournament format with 2 byes in the Quarterfinals. The top 4 teams are seeded from 1-4 so the first and second place teams can only meet in the Finals. We will conduct a blind draw to determine who the top 4 teams play in Quarterfinals (5th or 6th Place teams), or whether they get one of the two byes. In O40, the 4th and 5th Place teams will play in the Quarterfinals to determine the 4th Place team. We will conduct a blind draw to determine which team the 1st and 2nd Place teams play in the Semi-Finals (3rd or 4th Place teams).

Announcement
The TMSL Board is sad to announce the loss of a long-time player in our league, Vimal “Fiji” Kuberan, who passed away last week. For those interested, his celebration of life is Friday, 15 December, 10AM at the Northwest Community Friends Church, 5950 N La Canada Dr. For those of us who played with or against Fiji, he was a great person and player, and we will miss him. Thanks to those teams that held a minute of silence at their games Sunday.
Thanks, Marty
