Each team must nominate their doubles pairs before the start of play in each round.  Pairings may be changed following the singles by mutual agreement by the two coaches involved.

 

If a replacement is required, then the replacement is ranked at number 4 and all other players move up a rank.

 

Any pairing may be used for the doubles to comprise a First and Second Pairs.  If a replacement is required then the new is to take the position of the player being replaced.

 

The winner of a match will be decided on the number of sets won.  If teams have won an equal number of sets then games won will be used to determine the winner.  If still equal then a draw will be recorded.
