The remaining 7 teams will compete for the Frank Brady trophy to find a winner also on Day 2.
All teams are guaranteed 2 complete days of the most competitive baseball.
Official ABUA-GB umpires will be using the tournament as one of their clinics and will be officiating the games on both days on several diamonds.

On Day 1 game balls are to be supplied by the team drawn at home, on Day 2 game balls will be supplied by the tournament organizers.
