As of 24 June 2021

Page 2

Structure and Format

QTF has endeavoured to deliver a draw structure that is fair and equitable to all participants for this year’s event. The guidelines used at previous QTF events inform this year’s event draw as follows:

Teams are to play a maximum of four games per day.

Teams are to play a minimum of two games per day on Thursday & Friday (a bye will be classified as a round game)

Teams will play a minimum of six games over the tournament.

Teams are to have a minimum of two games break between games, other than Quarter Finals, Semi Finals and Finals on day 3 due to time constraints.

All Teams will play on the first day of competition (Thursday).

QTF has attempted to allow all teams to play on the last day of competition (Saturday).

Invitational Teams are unable to accrue points, but teams must defeat then in order to earn maximum points and/or points for the draw.

Determination of Finals Rankings Across all pools

The overall positioning of teams into Quarter Finals and Play-Off matches is determined by the following assessment;

o Overall Points – if equal, then;

o Overall Differential (for and against) – if equal, then;

o Overall Percentage – if equal, then;

o Result of Round game – if draw;

o Drop off.
