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:
Matchday 3 is the final opportunity for clubs to earn group points, improve their Power Score, 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 the Power Score. 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 Championship or Promotion Bracket, those matches set the seeding, the Power Score.
On Matchday 3, The Power Score builds the Power Schedule: squads are matched up to make the schedule as balanced as possible, the most even set of matches the field allows. Squads never play a team from their own group, every Power Schedule match crosses groups. If teams are tied, a secondary metric breaks the tie.
Everyone who isn't in the Power Schedule plays the Play-In for the final four at-large spots in the Championship and Promotion Brackets. In P2 and Minor, one of the four is guaranteed to the highest-finishing team that played in all three matchdays. In P1, every team in the Top 16 must have played Matchday 1.
One exception: a club whose top Minor team misses the Power Schedule chooses its path, the Play-In, or the M2 schedule (pool play), and the league places teams into the 8-team brackets from there. A Minor team that chooses the Play-In is playing for the Promotion Bracket, miss out and the M1 Survival Bracket has its own podium, trophies and prize money, with the bottom fighting to keep their M1 status. Power-qualified Minor teams play the Power Schedule, no opting down.
Once final seeding is set, teams take part in the Slot Choice presentation before the bracket starts: the picking order runs off the Power Score, and in that order teams choose their first-round opponents from the bottom 8 seeds. Slot choice takes place in the first and second rounds for the top 16 brackets, and if a team upsets a higher seed, it takes that seed's spot in the bracket.
Seeding runs off the Power Score, which weighs a squad’s group points per match together with the strength of its results, beating strong squads counts for more than running up wins over weak ones. The Power Score sets the seeding and the Slot Choice order for the Championship and Promotion Brackets, and helps decide their final spots from the Play-In Schedule. The first Power Scores publish November 9.
The Power Score ranks the squads in a division from 0 to 100. It blends two things: a squad’s record against its own division, and its Team Elo.
So a Power Score of 100 means a squad leads its division on both counts right now. Every other number measures how close a squad stands to the top of its own division, which is why a score can move when other squads’ results change.
