•Appeals must be submitted via email to info@southernpickleball.com

Partner Policy
•Players may register with a partner or select “Need a Partner.”
If registering with a partner:

•Failure to do so will result in the team being placed on the waitlist.
•Once the partner registers, the team will automatically move to the active list if space is available.
•Registration is not guaranteed until both players are registered, and all fees are paid in full.
Selecting “Need a Partner” does not guarantee the tournament will find a partner.
•This feature is provided as a courtesy so players may connect with one another.
•Players without partners must withdraw according to the tournament’s refund policy.
