Historical rulebook: not the current rules. The current rules are here (USHA One-Wall Rulebook, as of 26 January 2025).

All tournaments shall be managed by a tournament chairman, who shall designate the officials. The officials shall include a referee, and linesmen whenever possible.

Responsibilities

The chairman is responsible for overseeing the entire tournament. He, or his designated representative, shall be present at all times.

Rules Briefing

Before all tournaments, all officials and players should be briefed on rules and on local court hinders or other regulations. This briefing should also be in writing. The current USHA rules will apply and be made available. Any modifications made by the tournament director should be stated on the entry form, and be available to all players at registration. It is also recommended that referee clinics be held before all USHA-sanctioned tournaments.
