The 2012 Benchwarmer Bash

Federation Championships - Rogers Hornsby Federation

In 2009 we changed the annual Benchwarmer Bash to start off with Federation Championships. The 32 leagues are divided into 8 Federations (see the breakdown on the Leagues page). All Federations currently have four leagues - and the four league champion teams automatically advance to the Federation Championships. In 2012, there are no wild card teams.

Teams are seeded based on their federation power index.

Seeding - Federation Championship:

Bleed Dodger Blue Champion: Wisconsin - Power Index: 9 -- Greg Flees
Batman Champion: Brinkley - Power Index: 10 -- Michael Quinn
Superman Champion: Hollywood - Power Index: 25 -- Michael Lehman
Blue and Gray Champion: Fort Snelling - Power Index: 43 -- Andrew Lehman
