There will be three skill levels of play for each group: Recreational up to 3.5, Intermediate 3.5 – 4.0, and Competitive at 4.0 and up.
Team Round-Robin format will be used, with final play-offs to crown the top three teams in each bracket. Scoring will be standard. Play-offs will be scored in typical tournament style.
