(players and umpires) preference).
* Before a match (including the warm up), a toss coin will be conducted. The winner
will decide the service or the side of the court.
* Service alternates each game.
* The players will change court every odd-numbered sum of the players game
points.
* All matches, except for the semi-finals and championship, will be a pro-set match
(8 games, 1 set). The semi-final and championship matches will be contested with a
best of three sets, 6 games per set, match.
* All pro-set matches must be won by at least 2 games.
* A 7 point-tiebreak will be played if in any case teams are tied at a game score of
8-8 (6-6 for the semi-finals and championship). In the tiebreak a slide-two finish will
be applied if teams are tied at a point score of 6-6.
* In a tiebreaker, service alternates after each odd-numbered point. The player who
would normally be serving after 66 is the one to serve first in the tiebreak.
* If play is interrupted for reasons beyond the players control, the match will be
rescheduled and resumed later at the same point.
