Who advances out of the G2004 Play-in:
Top team from each group (n=4) will advance due to auto-invites extended to 8 teams.
Auto-invites:
4-Semifinalists National Cup: Surf, Arsenal, Beach-Arrache, West Coast
Top 4 from CRL Last year (excluding Surf, Arsenal, Beach): Blues-Kale, LAGSD, LAGSB, RSC
This is why the bottom four teams from CRL last year (Legends, IE Surf RB, IE Surf MB/SB, and Arsenal-SD/Force) were at the play-in this weekend
Auto-invites need roster continuity of 9 players.
Should any of these auto-invited teams not participate--will back fill with teams with next highest point-total from CRL play-in
Do you think they will enforce the 9 player continuity rule. I doubt hardly any of the auto invites will have this continuity.
