Salt City Brawl
Event Location and Date
August 8 - August 9, 2026
Arena 2, Western Sports Park, Farmington
151 S 1100 W, Farmington, UT 84025
Tournament Format
Event will be August 8th and 9th. Each day will be treated as a separate event for reporting to the NAF. Coaches are encouraged to play both days but are welcome to only play either day. There will be combined scoring for coaches that participate both days with the same team.
Tournament will be a Swiss style, resurrection tournament. Any injuries a team suffers will not carry over to the next match. Round 1 will be random pairings. Round 2 and subsequent rounds the highest ranked player plays the next highest ranked player they have not previously played.
The rosters may be changed between days but if the coach changes their roster it will be treated as separate for the purpose of event scoring.
