Final tournament:
Preliminary round and playoffs will be organized based on regular season standings and the official schedule.
Each match consists of 4 singles sets (S), 4 doubles sets (D), and 4 triples sets (T).
Each set is played to 50 points or a maximum of 12 throws per player/team. The winner of the set is the player/team
with the higher score. In case of a tie, the set ends in a draw. A set win earns 2 points, a draw earns 1 point, and a loss earns 0 points. Each match is played for a total of 24 points, known as the score. Each team may field 3 to 8 players from its roster.
A single player may play a maximum of 2 singles sets, 3 doubles sets, and 4 triples sets per match.
Substitutions during a set are not allowed.
The match is played on two lanes: 4 singles and 4 doubles sets are played simultaneously, followed by 4 triples sets — totaling 12 sets. Estimated match duration: 100–120 minutes. Match sheets are provided.
Match points: Win: 3 points, Draw: 2 points, Loss: 1 point, Forfeit/no-show: 0 points
Regular season standings are determined by: 1. Total match points, 2. Score difference, 3. Head-to-head result
In the final tournament, if a match ends in a 12:12 draw, the winner is determined by a Mölkk-out (6-4-12-10-8 format) played by triples. The order is: A1 vs B1B2 → A2A3 vs B3. The starting team is determined by a draw.
