Basically it's just a term for a small "special event" tournament , the format can vary. Some Leagues have end of season sweepers, if there's going to be a "Big" tournament at a house they might have a sweeper where you can win a entry into the larger tournament. etc.

Our center has 'holiday sweepers'. Basically it's just a doubles tournament they host on holidays. I live in farm country and a lot of people work in factories that close between Christmas and New Year's and they also get the Friday after Thanksgiving off. I'm not that lucky.

Could have side pots, and is smaller brackets of a bigger tournament,
