REGISTRATION:
You may register and identify your partner or request "Need partner". Your partner must register within five days of your registration or the team will be moved to the wait list. When the identified partner registers after the five day grace period, the team will automatically move from the wait list back to the active list if there is a slot available and both teams have paid. If a player needs a partner, the team will automatically move from the wait list to the active list once a partner is identified, registers, and both players have paid if there is an available slot to move to. NOTE: Your spot in the tournament is not guaranteed until your partner has registered and all fees have been paid in full.
The schedule is as follows:
Friday April 28th, 2023 Women's Doubles

Brackets of 4 teams: Double Round Robin. Each match will be one game to 15, win by 1.
Brackets of 5 or more teams: Each match will be one game to 11, win by 1.
As registration proceeds, tournament management reserves the option to combine brackets as needed if brackets do not fill. If brackets are combined to create playable brackets, awards will be based on the combined bracket. Brackets will be combined by age if possible to avoid combining skills.
Age groups will be added/removed as dictated by registration with the intent to keep brackets at a maximum of 8 teams, and a goal to provide at least 4 games for each team entered. Tournament directors reserve the right to change format as needed.
Skills levels include 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5+.
Age groups are 19+, 35+, 50+, 60+, 70+
A team must play at the skill level of the higher rated player (or higher) and the age group of the younger player. Age is calculated as of 12/31/2023.
RATINGS
