Tournament format:
This tournament is a sixteen team, no elimination
event. Each team is guaranteed four matches, with match play results from
the two day competition determining the order of finish - Tournament
Champions through sixteenth place. The format closely resembles the
traditional college match format. Each match consists of five singles sets
and three doubles sets. In event of a 4-4 tie, games will be counted to
determine the winning team. On Friday the singles and doubles sets will be
8-game pro-sets using regular scoring, with a 12-point tiebreaker played at
7-7. On
Saturday, the teams in the semi-finals of the Main Draw will continue to
play 8-game pro-sets. All other matches will consist of regular sets/regular
scoring with a 12-point tiebreak played at 6-6. Singles players can also
play doubles, however, substitutions are allowed between singles and
doubles. The #1 singles player must play #1 doubles (if playing doubles),
the #2 singles player must play either #1 or #2 doubles (if playing
doubles). In singles, a no stacking rule is in effect. Teams must play their
best player at #1, second best at #2 and so on. Awards will be given to the
top four finishing teams in the Main Draw and the winner of the Consolation
Draw.
