Hi! Just talked with the coach.
It’s single elimination tournament style from the first game.
So, lose your first game, and you’re out.
WOW!!!

Hi! I’m an English teacher for Kosei Gakuen.
I’ll find out about the rules for elimination and get back to you all.

To Bandits1

I spoke with four interpreters or English-speaking staff members and they all verified the fact of you lose and you’re out.

I will try to find supporting literature or I can put you in touch with the English speaking staff member.

“…in Japan is that once you lose a game, you are done for the season. It’s tournament-style all the way…”

So you put in all that practice time and if you lose your first game the players turn in their pads and that’s it? That can’t be right. Something got lost in translation.
