Event Format and Schedule
Format:
Men's Singles & Mixed Doubles on Saturday
Women's Singles, Women's Doubles, and Men's Doubles on Sunday
Each singles player or doubles team will play a minimum of 3 matches
All teams start in the A-draw. First round losers move to the C-draw, second round A losers move to the B-draw. Second round C losers move to the D-draw. A-draws will be limited to 32 teams maximum (16 for the women's singles and 16 for women's doubles). Registration closes when these limits are reached.
The "rally scoring" system will be used: if you win a rally, you get a point plus the serve; the game is to 21 points and win by at least 2 points; if the score 29-29, the next point wins - the match will be the best two out of three games.
Any round robins will use single 30-point games (with no extensions) against each team in your group.
Feather Birds will be provided.
Event Schedule:
The starting times of individual matches will appear at the bottom of this page about 4 days before the tournament. But in general, here are the starting times:
Men's Singles - starts at 9am on Saturday (arrive 10 minutes early to register). A few players may be contacted by Rick to arrive 20 minutes earlier.
Mixed Doubles - starts at 1pm on Saturday (arrive 15 minutes early to register).
Women's Singles - starts at 9am on Sunday (arrive 10 minutes early to register). A few players will be contacted by Rick to arrive 20 minutes earlier.
Women's Doubles - starts at 11am on Sunday (arrive 15 minutes early to register).
Men's Doubles - starts at 12:30pm on Sunday (arrive 15 minutes early to register).
Warm-up time is limited to 10 minutes for a player's initial match and 5 minutes for all subsequent matches due to tight scheduling time frames (we only have the gym until 7pm each night). We try to keep time between matches to about 20-25 minutes after the first two rounds.
Starting April 1, click here to see starting times and draws. A spreadsheet with 5 tabs at the bottom will appear. Click on the tabs of interest (such as XD for mixed doubles). Your computer may place the spreadsheet onto your desktop; if this happens, you must open it yourself with Excel.
