Players must self-rate and teams must play at the skill level of the HIGHEST rated player using their USA Pickleball Tournament Player Rating (UTPR) if available. This is a team event, each player must register separately and list your partner or indicate that you need a partner.

Bracket slots will be filled with the first teams to have BOTH players registered and paid. Listed partners of players who are registered will have 7 days to register to hold their slot.
