A 10-minute grace period follows the actual match call unless the organizer grants a delay.

Awards target noon; court access through 12:30 PM must be confirmed.
Weather updates: 6 PM the evening before and 6:30 AM on event day.
If play ends early, prizes follow current rankings: a completed championship takes priority; otherwise pool win percentage, point differential per played game, points per played game, then initial seed.
No refunds once play starts.
If the field expands
Eight-player plan: awards by noon. Expansion requires eight eligible, paid pairs by October 10 at 6 PM Pacific. The 16-player format uses single games to 11, win by two, cap 13, including all finals, to target noon awards. Conditional entrants are refunded if expansion fails.
Prize amounts assume a full paid field. Check the schedule again before the event.
Scoring & tiebreak rules
Traditional side-out scoring. Round robin: one game to 15, win by two, hard cap 17 (17–16 wins). Championship: best of three to 11, win by two, no cap. Bronze: one game to 15, win by two, no cap. No bracket reset.
Rank by round-robin wins. For exactly two tied pairs, their head-to-head winner ranks first. For three or more tied pairs, use point differential across all round-robin games, then total points scored, then initial seed (lower is better). Apply that full sequence to the original tied group; do not restart head-to-head within a remaining subgroup. Initial seeds are published before play. Withdrawn pairs’ pool results are excluded consistently. No-shows are recorded as forfeits without invented game scores. Both pairs must confirm scores; corrections are allowed before the next stage is generated. The director resolves disputes; the independent official handles disputes involving the director. If play ends early, a completed championship takes priority; otherwise prizes follow pool win percentage, point differential per played game, points per played game, then initial seed. Pairs with no results rank below pairs with results.
