Entry Limitations

Men may only participated in singles, one doubles, one mixed doubles and the handicap event.
Ladies may have two entries in Singles, their own and the closest in (younger) age, one entry in Doubles and one entry in Mixed Doubles plus the Handicap.

In the case of fewer than four participants, we reserve the right to cancel or merge one event with another.

Our ambition is that everyone should be able to play as much as possible and it may therefore be necessary to make adjustments based on the registrations.

DRAW

The draw will take place on the day of the game, for the qualification groups, the Consolation game and the main competition. List of participants, timetable and results will be available at resultat.ondata.se and in the arena. We will use the Cancellation which must be made no later than 60 minutes before the class starts to one of the competition leaders.

Everyone who wants to participate in the Consolation must register at the secretariat after the group play has finished.

Event information

(all events except the handicap event)

All events are played in a group stage with 3-4 players in each group and the top two go to the main competition. The 3rd and 4th are allowed to play consolation. The matches are played in best of 5 sets. All groups are played on Saturday. The main competition, also consolation, are played on Sunday except for the mixed doubles event, where both group stage and playoffs are tentatively placed as the last event on Saturday. The finals will, if the schedule allows, be played as a final session with doubles and singles finals.
Everyone who wants to participate in the Consolation needs to report to the secretariat after the group play. This is to avoid W.O. matches.

(handicap event)

In the handicap event, each player is assigned a handicap that will be based on the data ranking. For international participants, we will assign a handicap based on results in previous games in the competition. Handicap can be both positive and negative. A set can e.g. start with one player starting at 6 points and the other at -3 points. It will only be one handicap event, regardless of age and gender. The handicap event is scheduled for Sunday afternoon. It is a qualification game with Main event (no Consolation). The matches are played in the best of 3 sets and the two best in each group advance to the Main event.

Awards

In all events, 50% of the net entry fees will be paid out in cash prizes. How many prizes are awarded depends on the number of participants in each event. In the Handicap event we have a sponsor. First award will be SEK 4000, second award SEK 2000, 3rd-4th SEK 1000 and 5th-8th SEK 500.

Sanction

The competition is sanctioned as a C-competition by SBTF. This means that the players themselves judge in the qualification games and also in the Main event / Consolation, either by themselves or with a voluntary referee.
