National Level 2
TOURNAMENT WILL BE A 32 DRAW SINGLES AND INCLUDE A
FEED-IN CONSOLATION.
Main Draw will play two out of three full sets and Consolation will
play a Matchtiebreak (Supertiebreak) in lieu of the third set. Two
matches a day for the Main Draw and up to three matches per day for
the Consolation. The FIC Consolation does not finish and it will
stop at the Semi-finals due to the tournament lasting only three
days.
SCORING
All Main Draw matches will be full 2/3 sets and
all Consolation matches will play a Matchtiebreak (Supertiebreak)
in lieu of the third set with advantage scoring on all matches.
Some players in the Consolation may be playing up to three matches
in a day. A player will be entitled to a three minute break after
splitting sets and before playing the Matchtiebreak. The player is
allowed to leave the court, talk to a coach or parent, make a phone
call, etc. We recommend you DO NOT leave the court because of the
short time frame, and we will allow coaches, parents, etc to talk
with you behind the tarp of the court but not on the court. If a
player is late coming back to the court, the penalty is loss of a
game, which in this case results in Loss of Matchtiebreak or
Loss of Match.
