I like Kissa's idea about having the top 3 teams in the play-offs. Then it would be more of a competition to try and make the finals. Originally, if there's only four teams in the grade, then all four teams would make it to the finals. You could lose every game of the season and still make the finals. This isn't much motivation to win! This would also motivate your team to make it to the #1 spot...so they would only have to play one game. Great idea, Kissa!
