2 Hello, Welcome to Cologne Junior Cup This is our second year as the new Cologne Squash Tournament with a team of many people taking care of the tournament. And we are excited that we are able welcome this year about 350 players from all over the world. Let us all make this a fair, peaceful and happy tournament. Seeding Seeding has been carried out using the ESF Junior Rankings valid at the closing date and in accordance with the ESF Junior Circuit Guidelines Section D. Any non-european players without an ESF Junior Ranking will be seeded by the Tournament Director. The seeding and schedules had been published on and on the tournament planner. Matches All matches will be played as best of five games with PAR 11 scoring to 2 clear points. All players are guaranteed a minimum of three scheduled matches. All positions in each of the categories will be played out. Referees Well tried and proven in previous tournaments the winner and the looser of the previous match both will have to referee the next match in their court together. They will have to take two sheets the referee sheet and the score sheet. The score sheet must be tied up at the glass back wall of the court, the result must be filled in and the sheet must be brought back to the tournament desk after the match is completed. We will also have tournament team members circulating so that referee and score sheet are already at each court before the previous match ends. Eye Protection May we remind you that it is mandatory for approved eye protection to be worn at all times during competition play, including the knock-up, at this event. Players will not be allowed to start their match without approved eye protection. Alcohol Regulation! We decided also to maintain our strict alcohol policy.

4 Location The fastest sport in the world is of course one of the central and dominant activities in our Center. On 15 squash courts with excellent and state-of-the-art boarding and optimal illumination and lightening you can chase the small quick ball as quickly as you can. This is supported by a special sprung floor which had already astonished and excited international players as well as visitors and coaches, i.e. several international national junior teams and international top players at the ACR Open. It minimizes the risk of having an injury in the court. Therefore, Squash becomes not a risky or threat for your health but an enjoyable sports activity in all areas, at least also because the sauna is already included if you book your court hours. Interested newcomers can borough high performance rackets. Courses for each age and level and an own squash team in house complete the picture. The squash school offers an excellent possibility beside of improvement of technique and tactics also to meet with new sport partners. And our special trainer lessons give you the real chance to improve quickly. 15 high professional ASB-Courts* (1 Glass-, 2 Rainbow-Courts) Squash-School & Trainer Lessons ACR Racket Club (Our Squash Team) Hobby- / Indoor league Sauna visit included 4
