Can someone detail out what the requirements are to get to the U12B State Tournament?

How many come out each district?
How many come out of each region?

Thanks!

I believe it depends on the size of the district to get to regions. Then top two in regions go to state I think. I could be wrong.

I assume this year will be the same as previous years. 8 teams go onto state from 3 regionals. 2 teams will come out of the 'Olympic' Regional (usually the Northern 'outstate' teams ) 3 from the National (Southern State teams and a couple of city teams) and 3 from the American Regional (usually your 'city' teams and maybe another 1 or 2 Southern state teams).

The number of teams that each region taks from each District "League in the case of the Girls Leagues" is the number that can fluctuate depending on the size of each Distict/League. I would guess that D6, D8 and D10 with having 10+ teams would have 3, 4 and maybe even 5 teams make it onto Regions while a Districts such as D2, D3 or D4 might only be able to send 2 maybe 3 onto Regions. The Regional Sites as I know them:
- Olympic: Grand Rapids
- National: Waseca
- American: Richfield

Does anybody know when we can expect the Regional Pool Play Brackets to be announced as far as who would play who from what District/League for all levels?
