This tournament will feature a full day of match play competition. It will essentially play like a 1 day Silverball Showdown. 4 rounds of match play qualifying with each round played on a bank of 4 machines in groups of 4. IFPA scoring, ie. 7-5-3-1. At the end of 4 rounds, the top 12 (subject to change based on total number of players) after any tiebreakers will move on to the A finals. The top 4 will receive a bye. The finals will be conducted similarly to qualifying with the top 2 from each group after each round advancing until only 4 players remain. Those players will play one final bank to determine final positions 1-4.
Players who did not qualify for A will be invited to play in the B finals which will be conducted as a 7-strike(progressive) group knockout tournament.

The IFPA fees for the field will be collected from the A division final four.

A Finals rounds will be played on randomly selected banks.

The top 2 qualifiers will get to eliminate one bank each from the finals pool.

Tiebreakers will be a single game on a randomly selected EM machine.
