-
We try to get as many 5-team pools as possible. Teams play a round robin in their pool on Saturday. Play will be from 8:00 am until about 5:00 pm. On Sunday, there is a challenge round followed by single elimination playoffs. Play is scheduled to complete around 4:00 pm on Sunday. If we end up with 4-team pools, there may be some cross-over matches on Saturday afternoon to give teams 4 matches on Saturday.
In 5-team pools, the challenge round and playoffs, play is best 2 out of 3 sets format. First 2 sets to 25 points, starting at 4-4. Third set, if needed, is to 15 points, starting at 0-0.
Some alternate match formats may be used to accommodate for smaller division or pool sizes.
