HANDICAP RULES/FORMAT

  1. We will have 16 players maximum. The format is single elimination.
  2. Each player will pay only $2.00 to play.
  3. Winner of the tournament will get 50% of the money, 2nd place will get 25%.
  4. Each match will be a single 41 point match with handicap given to a lower rating player according to USATT handicap scale. e.g. if Player A’s rating is 1650 and Player B’s rating is 1400, Player B will start the match with 14 points. So every player has equal chance!  Click here for the Handicap chart.  Also, previous handicap tournament players will have their rating adjusted based on their last performance.
  5. The draw will be done on 3/1 and matches will begin immediately after the draw. If we cannot finish all matches, those matches will be played on 3/3 or based on the players’ availability.
  6. Any player who does not have a formal USATT rating will be rated by the club officers.
