UKU/BUCS Indoors Entry Rules for Open / Women:
The closing and payment dates will be as announced by BUCS (to your Uni) and on our UKU event pages. BUCS will NOT accept late entries. It may be possible for us to institute a second round of entries after the first deadline has passed if the tournaments are undersubscribed, but these will be charged (by BUCS) at 20% over the original price. We cannot guarantee space for teams who have missed the BUCS deadlines.
For tournaments that are over-subscribed at the closing date the following rules will apply, in order:
First teams will get priority over second teams, and second over third etc.
If there is insufficient room for all first teams, places will be awarded in the following order:
First teams finishing in the top half of the previous year’s tournament
First teams who didn’t enter the previous year’s tournament
Remaining first teams in order of their finishing position last year
If there spaces remain after all first teams have been allocated, second teams will be offered places based on finishing position last year, and then third teams and so on.
Second teams with no finishing position from last year will have a lower priority than those who attended – but still above all third teams (and so on).
If the cut-off happens to fall between 2 or more teams with no finishing position from last year, a lottery will be run between those teams to determine entry.
BUCS Nationals:
The closing and payment date will be as announced by BUCS. Entry is guaranteed for all qualifying teams provided they meet this deadline.
Should any team fail to take up their spot, the place will be filled by the next-ranked team from one of the qualifying tournaments, with priority among regions determined according to the following (in order):
1. The region(s) not yet offered an extra place under this process which had the fewest qualification spots originally
2. The region from which the team dropped out
3. The strongest regions, i.e.
for Division 1, the region with the highest-ranked relegated team last year – but note that rule 1 means we ignore teams from regions already awarded a dropout-spot.
for Division 2, the region with the highest average finishing position in Division 2 the previous year.
for Women’s, the region with the highest average finishing position last year.
4. A lottery between regions that cannot be separated by the above
UKU Indoors Entry Rules for Mixed:
Rules will be the same as for BUCS tournaments, with the following additions:
Late entries may be accepted, providing that they improve the schedule for others. We will not allow late entries which make the numbers worse.
Single-institution teams at a given level (e.g. 1st, 2nd etc) will have priority entry at regionals over any teams at the same level who have players from more than one institution.
UKU reserve the right to move clubs to a blacklist if any of their teams default from any UKU University tournament at late notice
Blacklisted 1st teams will only get into non-BUCS tournaments if there is space for all 1st teams; 2nd/3rd/4th teams from blacklisted clubs will only get a space if the tournament is undersubscribed – i.e. someone else’s 4th team will get in ahead of your 2nd team.
