Format
MATCH FORMAT: Best two of three short sets, 7 pt tiebreaker in lieu of 3rd set.
GAME FORMAT: First to 4 games wins the set.
SCORING FORMAT: No-ad scoring will be used. The receiver chooses which side the point is played.
TIEBREAKER AT 3 GAMES ALL:
Tiebreaker:
First to 5 points.
2 points serving each (starting deuce side).
Change ends once only after 4 points.
If Tiebreaker reaches 4 – 4 it’s “next point wins” the set. Do not switch sides. Players come to net for a racquet spin—winner of spin decides to serve or receive. Receiver(s) chooses which side the point is played.
Round robin play will be used in all divisions. All divisions need a minimum of 3 players for singles and 3 teams for doubles in order to be played. Draws of 3 will be double round robins where teams play each other twice. Multiple flights may lead to a semifinal or final depending on draw size.
