Format
MATCH FORMAT : Best two of three short sets, 7 pt tiebreaker in lieu of 3rd set.
GAME FORMAT: First to 4 games wins the set.
SCORING FORMAT: No-ad scoring will be used. The receiver chooses which side the point is played.
TIEBREAKER AT 3 GAMES ALL:
Tiebreaker:
- First to 5 points.
- 2 points serving each (starting deuce side).
- Change ends once only after 4 points.
- If Tiebreaker reaches 4 – 4 it’s “next point wins” the set. Do not switch sides. Players come to net for a racquet spin—winner of spin decides to serve or receive. Receiver(s) chooses which side the point is played.
Round robin play will be used in all divisions. All divisions need a minimum of 3 players for singles and 3 teams for doubles in order to be played. Draws of 3 will be double round robins where teams play each other twice. Multiple flights may lead to a semifinal or final depending on draw size.
Please read the below description for Sectional and National Eligibility
For all Florida NTRP Regional Qualifiers, self-rated (S) players may participate, but MUST achieve a USTA computer (C), tournament (T) or appealed (A) rating before being eligible to advance to the Sectional NTRP Qualifier or National NTRP Championships. In the event that a player does not achieve the eligible rating for any reason, the next eligible player/team will be invited (based on the procedure outlined in Friend at Court).
If you are a Self-Rated player, please work with your USTA Local Play Coordinator to determine a strategy for achieving a rating.
