Real money in every division, and the highest level of pickleball we've ever hosted. Welcome to the Metro Detroit Open. 💚
From September 25 to 27, all 16 courts turn into the most competitive weekend of the year. We built this one to be the best tournament in the city, and every single division plays for cash, from 2.5 all the way up to our first-ever Open divisions.
The Open divisions are the headliners: $1,000 guaranteed in Open Doubles and $500 in Open Singles, played at the top level we can put on a court. 🏆 Every rec division plays for a guaranteed purse too, and the more your division fills, the bigger it gets. (Full breakdown in the prize money section.)
Spots are limited. Divisions cap at 12 teams, and once yours is full it moves to a waitlist. Grab your partner and get in early before someone else takes the spot.
Format: Round robin into a championship bracket. Every team plays a round robin inside their pool, then the top teams advance to a single-elimination bracket and play for the medals and the money. Pool play is games to 11, win by 2. Medal matches may vary. Divisions are set by skill and age, so you're matched up with players right at your level.
Ball: Franklin X-40. 4.0 and up play with the Lifetime ball. Courts: Indoor hard courts, all 16 of them.
