Team Format Rules:
Since each Team has Four players, that provides Six different combinations of 2 players Teams.
During the Five Round Robin games, each Team will use a different combination of 2 players for each game!
That will leave ONE combination that didn’t play, during the FIVE Round Robin games and will be the players who play in the Single Elimination Game after seeding!
The Team Captain will submit a list of players for each game to the Tournament Director, prior to the event starting.
This format will force a Team to think through the games in order to place the best combination of players on the court at the right time to be successful.
A Team will need to be competitive to get to the Single Elimination game, but everything rests of winning that game to stay in the Tournament.
Skill and fitness will definitely come into play as the games progress to medal round.
The Team combinations in Medal rounds will be up to each team but must be different each game.
