Break:
This year LSE has decided to expand the opportunity for more students to experience the success of reaching outrounds. LSE Schools has grown in size in the last couple of years making a straight break to finals incredibly challenging. However, due to time constraints we are unable to run semis or quarters. We are therefore going to concurrently run 4 finals:
The Gold Finals ( teams 1-4 on tab)
The Silver Finals (teams 5-8 on tab)
The Bronze Finals (teams 9-12 on tab)
The Novice Finals (Novice teams 1-4 on tab)
