REGISTRATION DETAILS

NOTE: All Registration is through Pickleball Brackets (www.pickleballbrackets.com) and all registrants will need to create an account on the Pickleball Brackets website if you do not have one. It is free and easy to complete prior to tournament registration dates.

Registration Fees: $45.00 (includes one lunch) plus $5.00 per event

An online waiver will need to be signed during registration.

Online payment via PayPal. Please note: PayPal allows credit card payments, you do not have to have a Paypal account.

Registration is not complete until BOTH partners have registered, agreed to the tournament waiver, and paid all fees owing. Registration is limited in each event and teams will be added off the waitlist once entries are in.

We will be using the Onix Indoor pickleball.

There are NO warm up courts when play begins so you are encouraged to use outdoor space if necessary.

Once the tournament starts, there will only be a 2 minute warm up time before your match on the competition courts.

Plan to arrive at the venue 30 minutes prior to the start of your event to check in. We will start events early if courts are available.

When the maximum per event is reached based on fully registered/paid teams, others will be added to the waitlist and we will readjust numbers to add teams to events depending on overall event numbers. In the case of waitlists, teams will take priority over individuals.

COVID PROTOCOLS: we ask you follow the recent PHO orders and do not participate in the tournament if you are feeling sick or unwell on the day of your event. We will work with you to try and find a player to replace you in your event.
