If divisions are merged: a "B" player playing an "A" player would only need 35 points to win in a game to 50; a "C" player would only need 25 points against an "A" player; "C" playing "B" would need 20 points in a game to 35).
Participants are expected to know the rules for carom billiards, the general rules of billiards, and the rules and regulations governing tournament play. The player chair rule will be enforced. During a match the referee will be the only person allowed to handle the balls.
Players must turn off their phones and other audio devices.
