Selection and seeding
Badminton England player grading list followed by the rankings lists shall be used (as on the closing date). Players individual grades, (singles, doubles, mixed) will determine which events a player can enter.
The Committee reserves the right to use their discretion in selection and seeding, promote players to the main draw, to limit entries in any particular event, or alter or modify the programme in any way it sees fit, if it is in the interest of the tournament or where standard of competitors is not known. Its decisions on all matters shall be final.
No late entries will be accepted.
CONDITIONS OF ENTRY
The tournament will be run in accordance with the Tournament Regulations of Badminton England and will run from 1st July to 30th June.
All players must be in good standing with Badminton England.
A player fee to support Badminton England Compete website, ranking and grading is included in the tournament entry fee. This will either be incorporated into the entry fees or listed as a separate fee at the stage of application.
Entries must be made online through tournament software or on the official form and must be received by the Tournament Secretary listed on the prospectus cover, with entry fees, by the stated closing date. Cheques must be made payable to the affiliated organisation running the tournament as specified on the entry form.
BOTH doubles partners MUST submit an entry. If you have no partner and would like to enter a doubles event please select ‘Partner Required’. The tournament committee will make every effort to find you a partner but cannot guarantee to do so. Illegible or incomplete entries may be ignored. If at its discretion the Tournament Committee should accept entries and/or fees after this date, there will be a surcharge of £5.00 per player.
While every effort will be made to check all entries, it is ultimately the responsibility of the player to ensure that they comply with entry regulations.
No player/pair shall enter or be entered in two competitions if the published dates of the competitions overlap unless otherwise agreed with the organisers of both tournaments. A player is deemed to have entered, for the purpose of this regulation, if the entry has been made and not withdrawn on the closing date. Any subsequent withdrawal by a player/pair accepted in the draw of a tournament will not allow the player/pair to enter in any other event with overlapping dates. For the purpose of this regulation match selection will be treated as an event. If entry has been made into tournaments with overlapping dates without permission from both organisers, no rankings will be awarded.
Illegible or incomplete entries may be ignored.
WITHDRAWAL. Should you need to withdraw, you must contact the tournament organiser by phone and confirm in writing. Competitors prevented from playing by illness or injury, or other unforeseen cause, shall have entry fees returned in full, less £10 handling charge per person, but provided only that at least 48 hours notice is given. No refund is due if withdrawal is within 48 hours of the start of the tournament. If after the draw is published a player withdraws or retires, the player must be withdrawn from all other events in which they are entered. The referee has the discretion to overrule this where a player is unable to start or complete a game as a consequence of unforeseen circumstances such as late arrival or sickness and ailments which may stop a player from completing a match in one event but not incapacitate them from playing in further matches in other events.
Please look at the details to see how the actual tournament you are entering will be notifying competitors of their acceptance.
