How does it work?

In the qualification you will play self-organized in groups of 4, i.e. you have 5 weeks to play 3 ranking-relevant matches. You are either the host or the guest in each match. As host you are obliged to organize the match, i.e. to arrange the date via chat, to bring (new) balls, to reserve the court in the center and to report the result to the official via the TennisMatch app after the match. Two winning sets are played; match tiebreak (10) applies for the 3rd set. Attention "No Ad" applies

In the main round , the 1/4, 1/2 finals and the finals are played per category depending on the number of participants. Each match is also organized by the players themselves. The date indicated in the Swisstennis tableau is the last possible date. This applies if the players cannot agree on another date.

The finalists in each category then play against each other in the final. The tournament regulations are the invitation to tender, the TennisMatch regulations and the Swisstennis tournament regulations.
