However, Skill levels will be divided or combined by age after registration is completed to ensure that teams will play other teams of similar age.

Please check-in at least 30 minutes before your scheduled start time. In addition, if courts are available and everyone has checked in, we may begin subsequent events earlier than scheduled. Court assignments will be sent out via text messaging on the day of each event.
PLEASE UPDATE YOUR PICKLEBALLBRACKETS.COM PROFILE TO ALLOW TEXT MESSAGING.
The brackets and playing schedules for all events are available by clicking on the “Events/Brackets” button on PickleballBrackets.com. Brackets and possibly playing times are subject to change up until playing time, so check back often.
TOURNAMENT FORMAT
Format of play will be round robin. Medal rounds may follow the round robin play, depending on the size of the bracket.
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 original division and not the combined bracket. Brackets will be combined by age if possible to avoid combining skills.
