Entrants are divided into groups of about 8-10 players so that the groups are of even strength. The groups then play off. The leaders (top 3) in each group advance to the final. The final should have approximately 6-9 players.
Participants have 5 minutes each for their games. This event is currently held in May immediately after the Club Championship.
Aggregate points are awarded for performance in-group play.
