    The U18 section has only 4 players and will be played as a double round robin, not as a Swiss. The tiebreaks have been adjusted accordingly because two of them are meaningless for a round robin.

    1. Direct encounter
    2. Sonneborn-Berger with no result removed
    3. Greater number of wins
