PRIZES

Who qualifies for the finals?  The players or teams with the highest amounts in money prizes won during the category A qualifiers!

Qualification tourneys are titled as ‘Category A qualifiers’  in the calendar, the dates are:

If you like, and if you are good enough, you can participate in all weekends!

PRIZES FOR CATEGORY A QUALIFIERS ARE: 

But these prizes go only when there are 8 participating teams/players. If there are less, the prize will reduce comparably.
For instance; when there are 4 participants only, all prizes will be reduced with 50%.

If a category A qualifier is overbooked (more than 8 participants) then the tournament directors will appoint some players to pre-qualify during a 'category B qualifier' in the days before the qualifier.

They will decide who has to pre-qualify on the basis of perceived tennis skills and/or observed Ketball skills. No complaints or appeals possible! Of course you can prove the directors wrong by beating them personally in a match!

Tournament directors are: Diederik van Huijstee, Daniël Lopiz, Eduardo Manhaes

Prices to enter a qualifier or a pre-qualifier: First entry is free for every player or team for each category.
After that R$ 10,- per team/player. So you can participate for free for your single, double and mixed one time only.

The winner of a pre-qualifier wins no money prize, but the right to participate in the qualifier for free.

All ( pre-)qualifiers and finals are played in this system:

                                  A KNOCK OUT:

Between matches you are entitled to a 10 minute break only.

All matches are decided by a 'best of seven sets', so you must win four sets. This takes on average 40 minutes.

Each 8 team knock out schedule should therefore last about 3,5 hours.
