added 6/3/25 - The INWPC is announcing the addition of a KIDS DIVISION to the annual CdA Classic Pickleball Tournament! The date will be Sunday July 13th at 2:00.
There is a cap of 32 players, ages 10-13. The format will be Round Robin, with a guarantee of 5 games to 11 win by 2. Depending on final registrations, if we have all 32 spots taken, we will split into 2 pools of 16 where it will become 7 games to 11 with playoffs for the top 4 teams in each pool. Metals will be awarded to gold, silver and bronze teams!
To make this event extra FUN, it will be a team event. 8 teams of 4 players, any gender (2 boys, 2 girls or 3 boys, 1 girl etc). YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A PARTNER TO SIGN UP!!! Singles are welcome and encouraged!! However, if your player has a friend or sibling they want to play with at the same level, that is ok too! With full registration, pools will consist of 4 teams of 4. It may be divided into 10-11 yr olds and 12-13 yr olds OR divided into novice and intermediate divisions. All courts will have a volunteer referee/scorekeeper.
To make this event FUN and competitive, we ask that players arrive by 1:00 to be quickly evaluated to determine which division they should participate in. Since kids usually don’t have a rating, we want to place them in the pool where they will have the best experience!
