The tournament will be played as a mini dual. The mini dual will consist of a doubles match followed by two singles matches. The winner of two out of three matches will then move on in the draw. Each player is guaranteed to have four singles matches and four doubles matches on the weekend. Each flight will have a team champion.

Each mini match consists of three matches- one doubles match followed by two singles matches. Whichever team wins two of the three matches will move on in their respective draw. 

The no-ad scoring system will be used in the tournament, meaning that the first player/doubles team to win four points wins the game, regardless of whether the score is tied at deuce. Tiebreakers will be played at 6-all for all dual matches. The first doubles team/player to reach seven points (leading by two) shall win the tiebreaker.

Doubles matches are played to just one set, while singles matches are played to a best of three sets
