· The handicap system is the same as for the Bower Trophy (team KO), ie one game up to 42 points, change ends at 21

· Where a player has a minus handicap it is changed to a + number and added to 42 to find the length of the game (eg a -8 v. -3 will play to 50)

· Each pair has a doubles handicap, shown in the draw chart

· The order of play is 1v1, 2v2, 1v2, 2v1, doubles

· The winner of each game gets one point and tied games are awarded half a point each

· In the event of a drawn match, the team scoring the most overall points goes through

· The pair named first in the each first round match is at home – venues for subsequent rounds are shown in the draw chart

· The venue of the final is to be decided on the toss of a coin between opposing captains.
