Tournament Policy on DUPR Ratings for Divisions:

1. Combined Team DUPR Rating Requirement:

- Teams must ensure that their combined DUPR rating falls within the skill level range of the division they are competing in.

- For instance, if player 1 holds a DUPR rating of 2.6 and player 2's rating is 3.7, the combined team rating stands at 3.15. Consequently, this team is eligible to compete in divisions rated 3.0 or higher.

- In cases where a player possesses a provisional rating (denoted with an "*"), the tournament organizers will scrutinize the games played and liaise with the team if they are deemed to be in the incorrect division.

2. Rating Guidelines for Teams:

-Only Doubles ratings will be considered as the tournament is doubles format only.

- Teams consisting of players without a rating are encouraged to sign up for the division they believe best suits their skill level.

- For any queries or clarifications, teams are advised to contact the tournament directors via email.

- If one player lacks a rating while the other possesses one, the team's rating will be determined based on the player with a rating.

3. Division Skill Level Ranges:

- Division 2.5 (Skill levels 1.0-2.99)

- Division 3.0 (Skill levels 1.0-3.49)

- Division 3.5 (Skill levels 1.0-3.99)

- Divisions 4.0-4.5 (Skill levels 1.0-4.99)

- Division 5.0+ (Skill levels 4.5-8.0)

Payment and Partner Policy:

To secure confirmation, players are required to complete their payment and have both a registered and paid partner. In the absence of payment or a registered/paid partner, players may be moved to a wait list if the division for which a spot is being held becomes fully subscribed by fully registered and paid teams.

Partner Replacement Guidelines:

Following the closure of registration, players who find themselves without a partner have the option to replace their original partner with either a registered or non-registered player. The replacement partner must belong to the same skill and age group in which you are scheduled to compete. Players are permitted to play in a lower age category or a higher skill level. Any partner replacements must be identified and communicated to the registration contact no later than 6:00 PM on the day prior to your scheduled play. Please consult the list of players seeking partners to find suitable replacements.

Refund Policy: As of APRIL 8TH, all registration fees for the NVZ SoCal Invitational are non-refundable. In the event that a registered participant is unable to attend, refunds will not be granted. Please note that NVZ SoCal Invitational reserves the right to cancel or reschedule the tournament due to unforeseen circumstances. Should such a situation arise, registered participants will be promptly informed of any changes and offered alternatives, which may involve transferring their registration to a future event.

Participant Substitution: If a player finds themselves unable to participate after April 8, they have the option to substitute their spot with another player who is registered without a partner or is not yet registered. To facilitate this process, please contact us at NVZPickleball@gmail.com.
