Round robin is the way to go. Then take top 4 with a power ranking com RR. W/L and points scored. Top 4 play single elimination until championship maybe best of 3 if time allows.

Have all the teams play two seed games, and then compete in a single elem. bracket. We do this with pretty much all of our one pitch tournies.

8 teams, 1 field is a disaster.

If you can't get more fields don't do it. A lot of people throwing out ideas seem to be missing that fact.

You are looking at 3-4hrs breaks between each god damn game. I'd shoot myself to sit there for 12hrs and play 3 games total. DISASTER.
