Each team is limited to register ten players. "When a unit has a team in each division, a player may be advanced from "B" to "A" for one match, but no player having participated in two "A" matches will thereafter be eligible for the "B" division.

Competition in each division will be based on the number of sets won, i; e. m set consists of three games and a team winning two of the three games of a set will secure one point The teams having the greatest number of points at the end of the schedule will be declared the champions. In case of two or more teams having the same number of points at the end of the playing schedule. a play-off will. be held to consist of a series of three out of five games to determine the championship of that division.

No games in the schedule will be postponed except for most unusual circumstances. If a team is unable to be present for a given match, a forfeit score of 45 points (15 points a game) will be awarded, and three games won to the team that is present, end three games lost to the team that forfeits.
