DIRECTOR'S DISCRETION
The tournament director reserves the right to:
- review, and possibly alter the rating of players who self-rate below or above their actual ability.
- move players and teams between skill level brackets if on verification the wrong event has been entered.
- change start times to facilitate smooth running of the tournament
- reserves the right to modify the events and/or schedule as needed pending influences beyond our control (ie. Fire drill etc).
- will merge or split events based on event registration.
*Events to be combined if there are less than 4 teams in Doubles or less than 4 players in Singles. Tournament organisers possess the right to combine events based on either skill or age to provide the best overall playing experience, given the circumstances.
AMATEUR WAITLIST:
Singles: players will automatically be allocated a position in the main draw, UNLESS an event is at capacity.
Doubles: players will automatically be allocated a position in the main draw, UNLESS the event is at capacity. If you enter before the event is at capacity, you have 7 days to secure a partner and have your partner also enter the tournament. After 7 days if your partner fails to enter or you do not secure a partner, you will be moved to the waitlist.
Teams who have both players enter the event, will be prioritized over a player who fails to secure a partner and these teams will be moved to the main draw first.
It is the responsibility of the participant to source a partner and have them enter to secure the team's position. Players without a partner will not automatically be matched with another player seeking a partner. Please contact the tournament organizer prior to the registration deadline if you don’t have a partner and wish to be assigned an available player as partner. Players without partners will automatically removed when the event draws are created.
