If at the end of the regular schedule, more than two Teams are tied for first place or the last playoff position, the Teams will play a single-game elimination tournament to determine which Team will be awarded first place or the last playoff position. A coin toss will determine which Team will get a “bye” from the first game and will play the winner of an extra game between the other two remaining Teams. If more than two Teams tie for the last two playoff positions (similarly, if more than three Teams tie for the last three playoff positions, etc.), then the tie-breaking formulas set forth below shall be used to determine all of the positions that are higher than the last playoff position and a playoff game or games in accordance with this paragraph (b) shall be used to determine the final playoff position. In all of these cases, a coin toss will be used to determine the home team for each game.

(c) When two Teams are tied for a playoff position at the completion of a balanced schedule:

(i) the Team with the most wins shall be awarded the higher position.
(ii) if still tied after (i) above, the Team having the most wins against the other shall be awarded the higher position.
(iii) if still tied after (i) and (ii) above, utilizing all games of the regular season schedule, divide the total goals for by the total number of goals (for and against), with the Team having the highest percentage being awarded the higher position.

Looks like there could be 3+ teams for the final two spots... and u13AA West is unbalanced schedule. So,

"(f) When more than two Teams are tied for a playoff position at the completion of an unbalanced schedule:

(i) if the tied Teams have played an equal number of games against each other during the regular schedule, then the Team with the most wins in games between the tied Teams shall be awarded the highest position.
(ii) if still tied after (i) above, utilizing all games of the regular season schedule between the tied Teams, divide the total goals for by the total number of goals (for and against), with the Team having the highest percentage being awarded the highest position."

Because its a tie for the final playoff spot (8th place) teams will have to play elimination games among the tied teams. The above you mentioned is for only breaking ties between 2nd to 7th place. Any tie for 1st or 8th place is one game play down winner takes the spot.

It's VR's to loose.

VR may have a chance now that DD are unfortunately down a player. They are average at best and may be upset by
any team during first round.

DD and VR have players moving up. They are the only teams with players that can move up

No & No

If not players, what about keepers? And AA ones good enough to move up? Any AAA keepers weaker than AA ones?

Problem is what do these kids do next year? The AA loop is such a joke, the bottom half of AAA is an ever bigger joke... 100% DD could beat AAA MM, Titans, RW.
