MATCH SYSTEM

FOR KIDS, TEENS & JUVENILES

  • 2 athletes: Best of Three
  • 3-4 athletes: True Round-Robin
  • 5+ athletes: Double Elimination

For athletes coming from far away, a Round-Robin will be considered.

Limited Round-Robin will also be considered in a combined class where two athletes are not supposed to meet (see Criteria for Combining Classes).

We encourage parents to inform us as soon as possible if an athlete cannot compete. This also applies if the athlete must withdraw on the competition day. Send an e-mail with the subject "BRACKETS CHANGE" to: [email protected]  

With this structure, we aim to ensure that all athletes get at least 2 matches and minimize walkovers as much as possible.

ROUND-ROBIN TIEBREAKERS
