This is a Skill Level Tournament. Registration is by skill level.
For doubles and mixed doubles, both players must sign up at the skill level of the higher rated partner through PickleballBrackets.com. If neither player has a PickleballBrackets.com rating, players may self rate.
Ratings will be verified. The tournament reserves the right to move players and teams between skill level brackets.
Events may be split by age depending on the bracket size.
Events with fewer than 3 teams will be merged with a neighboring event.
The tournament format will be a round robin followed by playoffs for the top 4 teams for ALL events.
All events require 4 teams to be held. Any event with less than 4 teams will be cancelled.
Competition each day will begin at 8:00 AM. Specific start times for each event will be posted and emailed to players approximately 4 days prior to the event.
The tournament format is round robin for events with a small number of teams. Games will be either to 11 or 15.
For events with a large number of teams, there will be two or more seeded pools and the top two teams in each pool will advance to a playoff round to determine medal winners. Games will be either to 11 or 15.
For a guaranteed spot in mixed doubles or doubles, the second partner must sign up within 7 days of the first partner's registration. Incomplete teams will be moved to the waiting list after that. Once the second partner registers, they will be moved back into the event IF THERE ARE SPOTS LEFT IN THE TOURNAMENT AND THE EVENT.
The registration fee is $55 for the first event and $20 for each additional event. There is a non-refundable PickleballBrackets.com software use fee of $5 for one event or $10 for more than one event that will be applied to every registration.
