The format for this tournament will be round robin, 1 game to 15, win by 2, with single elimination play offs. Medal matches will be the best 2 out of 3 games to 11 (win by 2). (Note - for smaller brackets, the tournament director may convert the brackets to a format of 2 out of 3 to 11 (win by 2) or merge brackets, if needed. Larger brackets may be divided into pools with the top two from each pool advancing to the single-elimination playoffs (This maybe adjusted, as well).

Medals will be awarded to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners in each event

The Tournament Director reserves the right to merge brackets or change format as needed for tournament operations. This means that skill and/or ages could be combined depending on the registration counts.
