Selection process
32 player selection process: Selection will be based on the section standing in the age group of the event and the next youngest age division. There will be up to two (2) players in 32 player draws, provided the applicants are in the top 25 of the Eastern standing list of the next youngest age division (please note this will not occur in the 12U division). Players may register for multiple age divisions, but will only be admitted to one. Selection is completed for the older age groups first; if a player is selected to an older age division they will automatically be withdrawn from the younger division. If the player is not selected for the older division, they will only be eligible for the younger division. Please keep this in mind when registering.
