The event will be played over three days. On Friday and Saturday, there will be a day and night session followed by a final single day session on Sunday.

Each day four matches are played – three singles and a doubles.

Both singles and doubles will be best of three sets with ad scoring. In the event of split sets, the third set will be a 10-point match tiebreaker.

Each player will play at least one singles match during the two days.

No player will play singles more than twice during the three days.

At least four of the six players must play doubles. No doubles combination can be played more than once, unless for the Decider on Day 3, if points are 12:12.

The winning team must reach 13 points.

In the event of a tie after all 12 matches are played, a final overtime doubles match – a Decider – will be played as a regular set with ad scoring and a tie break.

Matchups will be determined prior to the first match each day through the exchange of lineup cards by the captains.
