U9 TDC FORMAT
* Each TDC team will consist of 2 girls and 2 boys born in 2009/2010.
* Each TDC team will be grouped with 4 other teams in a round robin draw.
* Each team will play one another in their group, thus each team will play 3 other TDC's
* Each match will consist of two girls' singles matches and one girls' doubles match, two boys' singles matches and one boys' doubles match for a total of 6 matches
* All matches will be 30-minutes with no ad scoring on ¾ court with the orange ball; players will play as many games as possible in the 30 minutes; each game won will count towards their teams total; thus, a team's total score will be the accumulation of the total games won from the six matches played
* Each match within the round robin grouping will be played using this format; thus, each team will accumulate games won from all three of their opponent matches against the other TDC's (24 matches in total)
* Final results within each grouping will be determined by total games won. Teams will be ordered 1-2-3-4-5 based on games won. In the case of a tie, the team with the least games lost will win. If the least games lost still remains in a tie, then the winner of the two teams when they played will determine the winner.
* The top team in each flight will advance to the elimination event on Sunday; based on the number of teams a wild card team may be added to the elimination flight ie. The wild card team will be the next highest game score among the teams not finishing in the top 2 of their box.
