The breakdown of the prize money
is up to the organizer, as long as the breakdown is posted before
the start of the tournament or announced in the flyers. It should
be noted that the prize breakdown of a single elimination format
is different from a double elimination format.
As shown in the example below, the single elimination format comes
in multiples of 1 – 2 – 4 – 8 – 16 –
32. Therefore, prizes are for the champion, 2nd place, joint 3rd
and 4th (top 4), joint 5th to 8th (top 8), joint 9th to 16th (top
16) and joint 17th to 32nd (top 32).
The breakdown in a double elimination format are for the champion,
2nd place, 3rd place, 4th place, joint 5th and 6th; joint 7th and
8th; joint 9th to 12th and joint 13th to 16th places.

It should
be noted that the 2nd placer’s money is one-half the champion’s
and the joint 3rd and 4th placers are one-half the money of the
2nd placer and so forth. This breakdown is the most ideal prize
breakdown and only serves as a guide. In a lot of instances, the
top 4 breakdown is normally followed and the prizes for joint 5th
to 8th placers are usually lower than one-half the joint 3rd and
4th placers. Usually the lowest prize is money back from the entry
fee. |

The
above examples are actual money payoffs in a double elimination
format tournament. Notice the wide variation in money distribution.
In the first example, 60% of the money is divided to the top three
finishers whereas the second example shows 82% distribution to the
top three finishers. The prize distribution in a double elimination
format is a little bit tricky compared to a single elimination format.
Again, it is up to the organizer to determine the prize breakdown
in a double elimination format and the above serves as a good guide. |

Distribution |
|
Often
overlooked, the organizer should facilitate easy distribution of
the prize money to the winners. In the doubles event, prepare two
envelopes for both winners. We often see doubles winners receiving
a single cash envelope and looking for change to divide their winnings.
For example, a doubles team wins P1,000 and is given a P1,000 bill.
They still have to change the P1,000 between themselves. Why not
prepare two envelopes of P500 each and let the winners be on their
way home? Provide some extra service to darters. |

|
| Respect
to Winners |
|
Time
and again we have seen organizers deduct cash winnings from players
that should be deducted from their managers or somebody else. Refrain
from deducting any amount without the consent of the winner. Always
give proper respect for winners and to darters. |
