The Double
Elimination format allows
for teams/players who lose
one game in the first or
second round of a tournament
to get a second chance to
make the semi finals.
Basically
first round losers go into a
separate repechage series
and the winners continue on
meeting up with other
winners in the semi finals.
It is important that entries are
seeded when using this format.
First round
winners go directly forward
to the next round while the
losers go to a repechage
series in Round (2).
The winner
from the winners section
goes ahead to the semi
finals whilst the losers
join the winner of the
losers section in a
repechage to determine the
two teams to join the others
in the semis.
Teams/players
defeated in the losers
section are eliminated from
the competition. It is
important that entries are
seeded when using this
format.
The same
rules for byes as for the
Single Elimination Format.
