Round-Robin Stage Rules
• Each team match includes 3 doubles matches: Women’s Doubles → Men’s Doubles → Mixed Doubles.
• Each doubles win earns 1 point in the Round-Robin stage; maximum 3 points per team match.
• Rally scoring to 15; at 14-all, win by 2; score capped at 17.
• Before the end of the full group stage, all 6 current official players must play at least once. The group stage includes both Round-Robin and Bonus Challenge.
• Failure to meet the mandatory participation rule deducts 1 point from the original Round-Robin score before final-score calculation.
CHALLENGE MATCH
Bonus Challenge Rules
• After the Round-Robin stage, teams enter the Bonus Challenge Round; each challenge is one doubles match.
• Teams may freely choose Women’s Doubles, Men’s Doubles, or Mixed Doubles.
• The winning team earns 3 basic points; the losing team earns 0 points.

Ban Card Mechanism & Procedure
• Each team receives 1 Ban Card for each Bonus Challenge match.
• A Ban Card may ban 1 opposing player from that Bonus Challenge match.
• A Ban Card may only target a player who appeared in the Round-Robin stage; it cannot target a player who has not yet appeared.
• A Ban Card may ban a player only; it cannot ban a doubles pairing or a match category.
• If a team gives up its Ban Card and wins, it receives +1 No-Ban Bonus; once declared, the Ban Card is forfeited for that match.
Final Group Score Formula
Final Group Score = Effective Round-Robin Score × 7 + (Basic Bonus Challenge Score + Special Bonus) × 3 + No-Ban Bonus

Scoring Examples
Rule effect: a team that wins the Round-Robin 3:0 cannot be fully overturned by the Bonus Challenge; a 2:1 lead may be reversed by the Bonus Challenge.
Group Ranking & Knockout Stage
• Teams are ranked by Final Group Score; the top 2 teams from each group advance to the knockout stage.
• If tied, compare in this order: Head-to-head Result → Total Point Difference → Total Match Wins → Golden-point Matches → ZRS Ranking → Draw.
• The knockout stage is single elimination. Each team match is best of three: Women’s Doubles → Men’s Doubles → Mixed Doubles. The first team to win 2 matches advances.
• Quarterfinals: rally scoring to 15, capped at 17. Semifinals / Finals: rally scoring to 21, capped at 23.
