​

Each event will be run as a Swiss System with 5 rounds.  There should be a free draw for round 1.  All players play in the same competition, regardless of FISTF category.  The original draw order is important so must be retained for use in later rounds.  3 points for a win, 1 for a draw.  There will be a maximum Goal-difference in games of 5.  And this means that, for example an 8-0 win is recorded as 5-0, a 6-1 win is also recorded as 5-0 and a 6-2 score would be recorded as 6-2.
