BNB Provincial Championship – Important Information & Code of Conduct
 
Rosters 
Should a team roster be reduced to less than 12 players, players may be replaced (up to the original team roster number) before the provincial championship tournament. New players can only replace names that were originally on the registration form. A fee may be imposed for each replacement made. 

Seeding
Teams will be placed in the appropriate category following the registration deadline. Seeding for tournaments will be finalized in March.
