Teams are not allowed to save seating space.
With this in mind, it is not permitted to hang banners or ribbons to designate such an area. We will remove and discard any banners, roping, etc... Please take turns sitting in the bleachers, if seating is limited. Share the fun. When you see there is a crowding problem, leave after your team's match and return later for another few matches.

If I were a judge (especially for Chairmans award) I would walk through the seating area at the event and eliminate any team that was 'saving' seats, as it is clearly against the rules.
