PPA Tour Professionals ranked inside the Top 20 of a division will not be eligible to compete in that division, unless otherwise invited as a Wild Card.

Once registration closes, the size of the qualifiers will be determined, based on the number of entries for each pro event. Players on the wait list will be notified at latest the Wednesday following the pro registration deadline whether they have received a slot in the main draw or qualifier event. Being on the waitlist does not guarantee entry in to the qualifiers or main draw. Some events may not have qualifiers, if there are not enough players to warrant qualifying rounds.

Eligibility for Qualifiers:

Players ranked outside the PPA Tour Top 20 in a certain category (Singles, Doubles, Mixed) are eligible to enter the Qualifiers in that category.

Players ranked within the Top 20 in a certain category (Singles, Doubles, Mixed) are NOT eligible to participate in the Qualifiers in that category, unless invited as a Wild Card.

Qualifier Format

Single Elimination 2/3 games to 11 win by 2. Qualifier rounds for all events will not overlap with each other, so players may partake in multiple qualifying pro events.

Please note that if you are playing in a doubles event and your partner does not register within 7 days of when you register, you will automatically be moved to the waitlist. Your spot in the main event will NOT be saved. If (after you are both registered and paid for the event) there is room in the main event, you will be moved back to the main event. If the event has filled up in the meantime, you will remain on the waitlist until a spot opens up.

Please note that after main draws are seeded and finalized, no partner changes are allowed. For qualifiers, partner changes are allowed until 6 pm the day before the qualifier event.

Players must have paid and have a registered and paid partner to be confirmed. Players not paid and without registered and paid partners will be moved to a wait list if the division in which a spot is being held is filled with fully registered and paid teams.

After registration is closed, any registered player losing a partner must replace that partner with an already registered player. The replacement partner must be in the same skill/age group that you are scheduled to play. Players can play down in age and up in skill. Replacements need to be known and communicated to the registration contact by 6pm the day before you are scheduled to play.

Not applicable.
