🎯 Open Gender Format

Your team can have any gender combination.

Each team matchup consists of 4 doubles matches, with pairings chosen from:

👬 MD: Men’s Doubles
👭 WD: Women’s Doubles
👫 XD: Mixed Doubles

Teams will be split into 2 groups of 4 teams each and play round robin matchups.

And this is where the strategy comes in… 🧠

⸻

⚖️ Handicap System

MD vs XD → XD starts +5
MD vs WD → WD starts +8
XD vs WD → WD starts +3
Same pairing type → No handicap

💡 Example:
MD vs WD → WD starts 8–0

🎯 Each match is played to 15 points
⚡ 14–14 = sudden death

If the matchup ends 2–2:

🔥 DreamBreaker to 11 points
🔄 Players rotate every 3 rallies
👥 All 4 players participate

👑 The top 2 teams from the 2 groups will qualify for the crossover Semifinals. The standings from the group stage will be determined by Win-Loss. A win is worth 3 points and a loss 0.

In case of a tie, the decider will be determined by the difference in total points won vs total points conceded.

All 4 matchups must be played even if the lead is unassailable. A walkover match will be regarded as 15-0 in favour of the winning team.

The Final and 3rd Placing matches will be played simultaneously.

⸻

🔒 Fixed 4-match Rotation

Every team must submit their 4-match lineup before the event.

All 4 registered players must compete.

You can decide your rotation later, it does not need to be submitted when registering your team.

⏰ Lineup Submission Deadline:

🔒 Once Submitted:
The 4-match rotation is LOCKED for the matchup. The sequence and pairings of the teams cannot be altered during the entire duration of the tournament unless approved by the tournament director with valid reason.
