WSL Introduces New Format For 2021 season after Cancels The 2020 Championship Tour.
After careful consideration and extensive discussions with key stakeholders, we have made the decision to cancel the 2020 Championship Tour and Qualifying Series seasons due to the COVID-19 pandemic," said WSL CEO Erik Logan.
When the Next WSL Championship Tour Starts in 2021.?
The 2021 tour will start in November 2020 in Maui, Hawaii for the women and in December 2020 in Oahu, Hawaii for the men, subject to the approval of the State of Hawaii and local government agencies, as well as effective protocols that allow for safe international travel.
The 2021 CT season will finish with ‘The WSL Finals,' a new single-day World Title Event in September 2021.
New changes in Championship Tour Format For 2021 & Beyond.
The WSL Finals: The men's and women's World Titles will be decided in a single-day event, ‘The WSL Finals'. The top five women and top five men following the 10-event CT season will battle for their respective titles.
Equal number of women's & men's CT events: The 2021 CT will include 10 events each for both the women and the men, an equal number of events for the first time ever.
Seasonality of the tour: Starting in 2021, the CS schedule will run from August through to December. The QS will run through to the end of June 2021 and determine who has qualified for the Challenger Series. Points from QS events that were completed in 2020 will carry over into 2021...
