It is incredibly important for MSHSL teams to note that while the tournament is intended to serve as an end of season contest for the spring season, it must be run as a summer event. This is to ensure teams comply with MSHSL guidelines which restrict the number of competitions allowed in a single-season to 13 games. Coaches and team administrators should review MSHSL policies and check with athletic directors to ensure that they follow "out of season" guidelines.
