Pickleball

DOUBLES EVENT - SAME GENDER PARTNER REQUIRED
All doubles teams will compete in the age category of the younger partner.
You and your partner should register separately but check-in together.
Best 2 of 3 match format
In order to keep the tournament on schedule, the first 2 games are to 11 points each (with a cap of 13) or 11 minutes, whichever comes first. In the event of a tie after time expires, sudden death rules will be applied. If a third match is required, a 7 point (with a cap of 9) or 7 minute format will be followed (sides will be switched at 4 points).
Tournament staff reserves the right to further shorten games in the event of time constraints.
This is a bracketed event, therefore participants MUST check-in 1/2 hour prior to competition start time. Failure to do so forfeits your activity registration.
