About this tournament
## Badminton Flex Tournament Play on your own schedule, close to home. Join before the deadline, get placed in a division of similar players, play your division matches one weekly round at a time, and the top finishers move on to the playoffs.
## How it works - Sign up before the join deadline. Divisions are drawn by rating so every division is competitive.
- Each weekly round you are paired with someone in your division. The home player (the higher seed) offers match times and a court; the other player picks one. Play within the round window. - Finish all your division matches. The top finishers advance to a knockout playoff, scheduled the same way. - Enter the score after every match; your opponent confirms it.
- Division matches must be finished within the play window (21 days). The playoffs start right after, and the finals are played on a separate schedule. - A new tournament opens every month.
## Match format - Every match is best of 3 games: the first player or team to win 2 games wins the match. - Games are played to 21 points, win by 2. Every rally scores a point. At 29-29, the next point wins the game (30 is the cap). - There is no third-game shortcut: if the match is one game each, a full third game to 21 decides it.
## Host responsibilities - The host (home player) brings a fresh tube of shuttlecocks to every match. - The host offers the times and the court, and confirms the final time with the opponent in the app.
## Be a good sport - Be courteous and on time. Arrive ready to play. - Make fair line calls. A shuttle that lands on the line is in. When in doubt, the shuttle is in. Report scores honestly. - Answer match requests promptly. If you cannot make a match, tell your opponent as early as you can and reschedule inside the round window.
