Friday, January 29 – Saturday, January 30, 2027 · North East Regional Park, Orlando, Florida (turf). Matchday 3 in the morning — championship brackets by Friday night.
The final regular-season matchday, and Day 1 of championship weekend. Clubs from all divisions — P1, P2, M1, Women’s and M2 — finish the schedule and fight for final group points.
Clubs are scheduled first against group opponents they haven’t played yet. If you’ve already played most of your group, the league schedules additional matches for competitive balance. Every club is guaranteed a minimum of four matches, running until about 5:00 PM.
Group matches award group points; matches outside your group move your team Elo. A club that starts the day near the bottom of its group can climb into a top position by the end of it.
Full-roster participation matters most here — final standings are set today. Minor B, C and D squads finish what they started at Matchday 2, against Minor squads from across the league.
After Matchday 2, every team lands in one of two schedules for Matchday 3.
All remaining teams play the Play-In Schedule, battling for the final four at-large spots in the top bracket.
In P1, a team is eligible for the top bracket only if it attended all three match days.
In P2, one of the four at-large spots is guaranteed to a team that attended all three match days.
In Minor, one of the four at-large spots is guaranteed to a Minor team that attended all three match days.
Matchday 3 concludes. The league finalizes standings from all three matchdays and creates the championship brackets.
The Slot Choice Ceremony for the P1, P2, M1 and Women’s Top Brackets: the highest-ranked clubs select their first-round opponents from the bottom eight ranked clubs in their division.
First-round matches (Round of 16) officially begin Friday night. Lower brackets (8-team brackets) start on Saturday.
Championship bracket play continues. First matches begin at 8:00 AM. All divisions continue bracket play until champions are crowned — four rounds, overtime enabled, under the same rules as the regular-season matchdays.
Day 2 runs three bracket matches instead of four, leaving room for full overtime and for what makes this event special: watching championship roundnet — semifinals and finals in front of hundreds of fans, included as part of your registration.

Matchday 3 is the final regular season matchday of the PRO Roundnet season and serves as Day 1 of Championship Weekend in Orlando.
Friday, January 29, 2027 / Approximately 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM / North East Regional Park — Orlando, Florida / Turf Fields
All divisions compete during Matchday 3, including:
• P1
• P2
• M1
• Women's Division
• M2 squads
Matchday 3 is the final opportunity for clubs to earn group points, improve Team Elo, climb the standings, and qualify for championship playoff brackets.
Matches against divisional group opponents award group points toward standings. Matches outside the group primarily impact overall Team Elo ratings. Because of this structure, standings can shift significantly throughout the day.
The League first schedules opponents from within each team's divisional group that they have not yet played. If additional matches are needed, teams may be scheduled against nearby competitive opponents to maintain balance and complete scheduling.
Every club is guaranteed a minimum of 4 matches during Matchday 3.
Matches continue throughout the day until approximately 5:00 PM before playoff brackets and evening activities begin.
Yes. Teams may move dramatically in standings, playoff qualification, or seeding based on final Matchday 3 results.
After Matchday 2, the top 6 teams from each group move into the Power Schedule: they play each other on Matchday 3 morning in Orlando. Every Power Schedule team is already in the top bracket — those matches set the seeding, which combines Team Elo + group record.
Everyone who isn't in the Power Schedule plays the Play-In for the final four at-large spots in the top bracket. One of the four is guaranteed to a P2 team that attended all three matchdays, and one to a Minor team that attended all three matchdays.
Once final seeding is set, teams take part in the Slot Choice presentation before the bracket starts: in seeding order, teams choose their first-round opponents from the bottom 8 seeds. Slot choice covers the first two rounds — and if a team upsets a higher seed, it takes that seed's spot in the bracket.
