General Information
1. Open to all players of all ages.
2. Teams are guaranteed 4 games during the event—one game on Friday evening, 3 games on Saturday.

Scoring
3. Scoring will be continuous play for 30 minutes, no rest period.
4. Games are par 15, with continuous scoring. Sudden death at 14-all.
5. Winning team gets a bonus point.
6. When the whistle blows at the end of 30 minutes, the team who has more than 11 points or is ahead in the game (if both teams have 11 points or more) wins the game. If the score is equal at the time of the whistle, the team who was going to serve next wins the game (if 11-all or higher). If both teams had a score less than 11 points in the final game, that game does not count.
7. If the games are equal, then the points must be counted, and the team with the most points gets the bonus point.

Tag Team change
8. Each team gets 3 tags which they must use during the 30-minute game time. So the playing order is Player 1 – Player 2 – Player 1 – Player 2. Each player must play twice, with player 1 starting the match, and player 2 finishing the match. All three tags must be used, however the teams have discretion when they want to use the tags.
9. A player can tag their other team member at any stage during a match, even in the middle of a game.
