Game times are divided into 5 slots and each team will play in each time slot twice in the regular season - 10:00-12:00, 12:00 - 14:00, 14:00 - 16:00, 16:00 - 18:00 or 18:00 - 20:00 every Sunday. Exceptions: September 18th and November 13th will be off days, which may be used for make-up games or a tournament. Some playoff games (bottom four teams) will be played on Saturday, November 26th and the Finals will be played on Saturday, December 10th.
