Each draw will be scheduled independently based on the number of entrants. The format of the tournament is single elimination for most draws and the scoring for all matches will be PAR-11.
Eligibility: To qualify for any of the age level draws, you must be the minimum age of the draw as of Jan 1, 2016. To qualify for any of the skill level draws, you must be at or below the rating level of the draw as of Jan 1, 2016. For example, in order to qualify for open 4.0, your US Squash rating must be at or below 4.0 on Jan 1 2016. Each draw will be administered by a volunteer draw coordinator who is familiar with most of the players in their respective draws. The coordinator will determine eligibility for draws and may reassign as required.
You may enter more than one draw but no more than two skill level draws.
Don’t miss this very competitive and fun event. Even if you don’t quite make it through to the finals plan to attend finals night at Harvard’s Murr Center. Refreshments will be provided courtesy of MA Squash.
