Entry Allowance
Institutions can request unlimited number of non-guaranteed entries. The event, especially A Grade, is often over capacity and so numbers of competitors may need to be restricted. The draw will determine this based upon filling each grade with the appropriate level of competitors.
Entry Conditions & Reserve Lists
Player allocations to a Grade and seeding are allocated based upon the information submitted at the time of entry and your rating on Squash Levels at the time of doing the draw. It is therefore important to provide as much accurate information as possible on recent form and recent squash achievements. Tournament Organisers cannot accept responsibility for designating players to the wrong draw if you have not provided the relevant information on playing standard.
The Draw and Reserve List – Version 1 will be published by 5pm Thursday 21 November. Students that cannot initially fit into the competition will be placed onto the reserve list. This is the opportunity for students to check their initial grading and ensure that they are not in two competitions.
To limit first round BYEs each withdrawal will be replaced. Initially the reserve list will be used but where no grade equivalent is available competitors will be moved up from the grade below. Competitors should check the FINAL DRAW which will be uploaded onto the website on Thursday 28 November.
By entering the competition the student is confirming that they are willing and able to compete. Therefore, any students called up from the reserve list who then withdraws will still be charged the entry fee.
