General Information about Play: This is a fun day on the courts. We want everyone to be able to enjoy the competition and as such expect others to treat everyone with respect. These games are self-officiated and everyone should follow the rules, make honest line calls and accept decisions gracefully. This is not a DUPR sanctioned event, so all pressure is off, and players can acknowledge good shots and offer encouragement to others.
We are playing round robin format initially for pool play, games will be played to 9 and win by 1. Yes, this is a shorter game, but we are amazed by the turnout and have 72 players playing on four courts! The top four seeded teams from each division will move forward to championship games. (Seeding will follow the number of wins and then point differential format for determination.) Championship games will be played to 11 and win by 2.
Please only use the designated tournament balls for play. They will be located in a basket in the middle of the court. Once your game is over, please give your score to the volunteer on the court. Fun fact: Each ball has a sponsor: If their ball is chosen during a championship game they win a prize!
This year we offered Youth, Women's, Mens and Mixed brackets. After registration was stopped, we had to collapse down some of the brackets to ensure that there would be enough teams in each division to play. As such this year we will have:
Women's Beginner
Mixed and Men's Beginner
Women's Intermediate
Mixed and Men's Intermediate
Advanced Men's and Women's
Advanced Mixed
If you know in advance that you are not going to be able to make it, then please let us know today. We are putting the schedule together tonight and will release as soon as it’s completed
