The Sac-Joaquin Section flag football playoffs will begin on Oct. 29 and conclude with the finals on Nov. 8 at Cosumnes River College.
Each league will qualify three automatic entries if it has six or more teams; leagues with five or fewer teams will qualify two. Teams that are not automatic qualifiers may still earn at-large bids if they finish within the top 15 in their MaxPreps division rankings.
There will be four total brackets, each comprised of 16 teams. Play-in games are possible.
