IPT Selection Criteria
The IPT squad is announced during prize giving at the Closed Tournament. To be eligible for selection, a player needs to fulfil all of the following criteria:
- Participation in the Closed Tournament.
- Participate in the Growthpoint Regional Tournament.
- Participate in any other two tournaments sanctioned by Squash SA.
- Attend a minimum of 3 squad training sessions during the year.
- Successfully completed the relevant level Marking and Refereeing course.
To determine the IPT teams and a player’s position in the team, the Ladder is used. A player’s final position in the Closed Tournament is not necessarily the same as their Ladder position.
