I did something similar in August, 2012 . . . . .
Format Saturday. Preliminary Rounds. Entrants will be split into teams of four within which there will be a 7-point Knockout (A vs B, C vs D), followed by a 5-point Knockout (paired with a new opponent for Round 1); each knockout to determine 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th for which scores of 4, 3, 2 and 1 will be awarded. Finally a 3-point Round-Robin, again to determine scores - any ties to be decided by prior Round-Robin head-to-heads else a 1-point play-off.
Format Sunday All entrants split into three groups, Gold, Silver and Bronze based upon the sum of points awarded during the Saturday preliminary rounds. Should two or more entrants share a score equal to one Group a play-off will decide final Groupings which will start at 10:00 prompt. Late-comers will incur penalty points starting at 10:05.
Each Group will be a straight 9-point Knockout (byes where applicable) with all 1st match losers going into one semi-progressive Consolation. Finally, entrants not in the Main or Consolation will go into the 5- (or 3-) point Last Chance, subject to time and draw space.
