Match Formats
The match format at each event will vary. Depending on available courts and tournament numbers each event will run a format trying to optimise the number of matches for all players. Formates used are Round Robin, Monrad and Elimination Draws. Most matches played in the MJDS will be First to 6, with a tiebreak at 5-5. Short Deuce will be played.
Orange and Green Ball matches will be played using a timed match format, enabling all players to have as much time on court as possible.
