- Singles and Doubles are Three Sets with a Ten Point Tie Break if even after two sets
- Partners Drawn is an event where players enter as single players and a random draw is held to form them into mixed doubles
- The American is a round robin competition on the Sunday afternoon where you enter as individuals and play doubles for a number of short periods moving around so that you have a different partner in each round, winners playing with losers.
- All Events, bar the American Tournament, will be compass draws. A Compass Draw is a knockout competition where the winner(s) moves east in the draw in the Cup competition and the loser(s) moves west into the Bowl competition. This will ensure that each entrant will get a minimum of two matches per event over the two days.
