Teams should consist of 4 pupils and are separate KS3/KS4 competitions. Each player must be ranked 1-4. The competition is a round robin format, numbers 1 & 2 will play singles and numbers 3 & 4 will play doubles. Matches will be first to 11 points or a maximum of 8 minutes (this may vary due to entries).

Please be aware that at county level (stated above) there will be 5 participants. The extra person can be used in any match and not just as a reserve incase of injury. If a player is injured during the game, that game is conceded but the 5th player must be substituted for further games in that match.
