[quote=Anonymous] Each tournament has a different system. Many of them do consult with the coaches for each given age group who may know the teams. Some base it solely on rankings. Almost always the goal is to group teams at the same level together although there are a handful of clubs who will deliberately try to stack brackets so their own teams have a better chance to win. Many clubs will also listen to appeals and move teams if they are incorrectly placed. Usually it is the tournament director who has the final say. From what I've heard many tournament directors feel the job has gotten more difficult recently with more and more closed leagues claiming to be elite and fewer teams playing in competitive leagues with promotion and relegation where you can look at their record and tell something about their level.
