    • Tournament Upgrading
  • National Sport Trust Fund-Manitoba Division
(a)  tournament players are required to upgrade to the next highest skill level if:
  1. they reach the finals of the "D" or "E” division
  2. they win the "C" division
  3. they win two tournaments in the "B" category within two years. "B" players winning one tournament may, if they wish, elect to upgrade immediately.
The criteria is applicable to both men and women, but is only enforced for sanctioned tournaments.

(b)  for upgrading to occur in a sanctioned tournament there must be a minimum of eight entrants; however, based on circumstances the Technical Coordinator may:
  1. choose to waive the minimum requirement,
  2. not upgrade anyone based on calibre of play, or
  3. the two finalists at Men’s and Women’s C level at a sanctioned tournament be allowed to move up to B.

(c)  if a player feels he/she is competing in a skill level beyond his/her capabilities, said player may request a readjustment in playing level, by appealing to the Squash Manitoba Council, (in writing), to downgrade the skill category. This option is relevant to Squash Manitoba sanctioned tournaments, but would generally apply at club events as well.
