Registration will be based on your DUPR rating.
For example, if you have a 3.5 DUPR trying to register for 3.0 you will not be allowed to enter 3.0 and must register in 3.5 or above. If you do not have a DUPR the system automatically defaults to your self rating in pickleballbrackets.com. If you are not able to register for an event please check your DUPR or self rating.
If you believe your DUPR is not accurate you will need to contact DUPR.
We go by the rating of a player's DUPR when they register even if a player's DUPR changes before the tournament start date.
