I don't know of a link, however there are likely to be some changes. I have it on good authority that
- Red will be required to back into the shiaijo while white will be moving forward.
- For the quarterfinals, sonkyou will be done on one foot, red, on the left and white on the right foot.
- For the semifinals and beyond, both competitors will be required to do sonkyou and then perform a handstand prior until hajime.
- Team matches will follow the new melee format. This should save a great deal of time as well as allowing for a chance for teams to demonstrate group tactics in addition to individual skills.

:-D

Ron, I thought team competition was going to be tag team format this year although the melee option sounds interesting if they are going to have all teams going at once in the newly expanded 100x100 meter shiai jo.
