The pitch
It's the final tournament before our inaugural Tournament of Champions and we're giving our dedicated community a final shot at qualification. The winning duo of this team is guaranteed a spot in the big show and all participants are getting bonus Tournament Circuit Standing points. (Check your spot in the standings here.)
But what kind of tournament is this?
It's a fun and funky Random Partner Draw tournament. We'll have 24 players and will put them into two pools—top of the Tournament Circuit Standings and the rest—and then draw pairings randomly.
You and your partner will then be drawn into a random group of four teams, where you'll play a round robin on the same court. Top 2 teams from each group + two of the 3rd place teams will then move on to a single elimination bracket. (Here's some good news: If you don't make it to the elimination round, you can still stick around and play bocce on the third court.)
All the games are to 12 points with the down-and-back timer set to 20 minutes. The championship game, however, will be played to 16 points with no timer.
