Rules

1. The entry fee is £3.00. Please pay this to one of the organisers (Paul Heneghan or Brian Ireland) and make sure your name gets ticked off on the list.
2. Please get in touch with your opponent to check whether he or she can play at the scheduled time. If there is a problem with the scheduled time, please get in touch with the organisers ASAP. It may be possible to reschedule your match, providing it does not hold up the tournament.
3. All matches will be the best of five games.
   American scoring (i.e. point-a-rally up to 15).
   At '14 all', receiver can 'set one' (first to 15) or 'set three' (first to 17).
   Only one serve is allowed.
   Usual rules about interference, lets and strokes apply.
4. This competition relies on players (particularly team players) making themselves available to mark other matches. Please try to stay on after your matches to mark the next game.
5. Remember there is a plate competition for first-round losers. This means you are guaranteed a minimum of two games.
6. Please come along and support as many of the matches as you can - particularly the finals on the last Sunday. After the finals, food will be provided in the bar.
7. Visit the Squash Section website (http://www.eveshamsquash.co.uk/index.html). This will be updated every evening to show the latest results and commentaries. It will also include any updated times for rearranged matches. It would be great to have some write-ups for the matches. If anyone feels inspired, please e-mail me your efforts. Once again, lecherous or libelous commentaries in particular would be appreciated! The squash content doesn't have to be particularly high - anything in the public interest is OK.
8. The starting scores are worked out from the matrix as follows: Your starting score is on the intersection of your row and your opponent's column.
   Example: Paul Heneghan v Steve Dyke
   Paul is in group E and Steve is in group B
   Paul's starting score is +5, Steve's is -7.
   This means that Paul needs 10 points to win whereas Steve needs 22.
9. If it appears that a player is in the wrong group, the organisers reserve the right to move that player to another group for the next match.
10. Please phone me (Paul Heneghan, 871565) or e-mail me (paul@heneghan.co.uk) if you have any queries.
