ACL Pro Teams race heads to July 11 final and Rock Hill playoffs
The Carolina Coasters sit 21 points behind Vegas and one point ahead of Chicagoland as Mesa and Rock Hill set the playoff line. July 11 now feeds straight into Rock Hill.
The Carolina Coasters’ page has turned the ACL Pro Teams race into a countdown. Saturday’s Mesa Signature Open closes with the Week 4 Final at 8 p.m., and bracket play begins at 9 a.m. with playoff spots still hanging in the balance.
The standings snapshot dated June 11 makes the pressure plain. Vegas High Rollers lead the race with 1,470 points, the Carolina Coasters are second with 1,449 points and a 25-17 record, and the Chicagoland Spinners sit just behind them with 1,448 points. On the Coasters page, an asterisk marks the teams that qualify for the Pro Teams Playoffs, a reminder that every result now feeds directly into the ACL World Championships in July.
The Coasters’ roster gives the chase a face. Jamie Graham captains a group that includes Adrian Brunson, Jackson Gore, Derek Holland, Gio Mora, Jacob Trzcienski and Ryker Wells, with players listed from North Carolina, California, Massachusetts and Missouri. The team page also keeps roster, standings, stats and shop tabs front and center, underscoring how the ACL has built Pro Teams around a season-long identity rather than a single weekend bracket.
That structure is part of what gives Mesa and Rock Hill such sharp stakes. The ACL said the 2025-26 Pro Teams season began March 20, with rosters built around six to 10 players, two designated franchise players and a four-round draft held January 3. At each Signature Open, beginning with Kansas City, every team plays in a single-elimination event, and the winner earns an automatic berth into the Pro Teams Playoffs at the World Championships. Teams that do not win still have a path through the Challenger Bracket, where the last playoff spots will be sorted out at Rock Hill.
The championship week is already on the calendar. The 2026 ACL World Championships run July 27 through Aug. 2 at the Rock Hill Sports & Event Center in Rock Hill, South Carolina, with Pro Teams Challenger Bracket play on July 27, quarterfinals on July 28, semifinals on July 29 and the Pro Teams Final at 8:30 p.m. on July 31. The ACL says the event will feature more than 50 competitions and more than $800,000 in total payouts, with Pro Teams sharing the stage with Pro Singles and Pro Doubles.
Rock Hill also remains the league’s anchor. The ACL’s national schedule says the season starts in its official home city, then stretches across the country before returning there for the final cutoff. For the Coasters, the next 48 hours in Mesa will decide whether they arrive in Rock Hill chasing a title or fighting for one last rescue in the Challenger Bracket.
