Format
Remember each team is either A-man, B-woman, C-woman, D-man or A-woman, B-man, C-man, D-woman
Each round has a same sex match -- i.e. men play men, women play women --
and a mixed doubles match where the A-B players are the upper team and the C-D players are the lower team. The upper pairings from each team play off against each other, as do the lower pairings.
Each match uses a four (4) game format just like the wild card, where every player serves and the Rossmoor sun rule is in effect. No ad scoring and men serve to men, women to women or receivers choice for same sex matches
The number of games each team wins determines a win, loss or draw
To sum up: there will be 8 games played in each round
