The Details...
3 player teams.
The total of the skill levels of the 3 players fielded in any team match cannot exceed 15.

One time out per player per game will be allowed. Players may only participate on one team.
Players must be from the same League area.

Alternate between 8‐Ball & 9‐Ball racks, starting with 8‐Ball.
Team Captains flip a coin to decide who must declare their three players for the match. Winner of the flip has the choice of declaring first or having the opposing Team Captain choose first. The Captains will list their players in ascending order (lowest to highest). That list determines the player rotation, and is locked for the match.
Order of play will be lowest skill level to highest.

Players lag to see who wins the first break.

Once the first two players have completed their rack of 8‐Ball, the second two players in the rotation will play a rack of 9‐Ball. Upon that rack’s completion, the next two players in the rotation will play a rack of 8‐Ball. Once set, the player rotation continues until a team reaches the required points necessary to win the match.

The winning team breaks with the next player in the rotation after each rack. Each individual rack is worth one team point.
Games Must Win chart will be used.
A player’s highest skill level between formats (8‐Ball & 9‐Ball) must be used towards the 15‐Rule. Exception – skill level 8/9s will count as 7s in this tournament.
