What is the Crazy 8's Format?

A New Take on Traditional Play

Crazy 8's offers a refreshing twist to standard matches, focusing on equal opportunity and teamwork:

• Player Setup: Start with eight players ranked from one to eight. This number is fixed to ensure balanced and fair play.
• Unique Pairings: The top-ranked player partners with the lowest-ranked player, and the matches unfold dynamically with varied team combinations, creating interesting matchups and promoting community spirit.
• Game Structure: Each round features two simultaneous matches on separate courts, encouraging high-energy play and strategic thinking.
• Winning Dynamics: In every round, winning teams stick together, facing new opponents in an ever-changing, competitive environment.
