Format
Teams of 4 players are broken into divisions based on their total combined DUPR rating to compete against each other in four 15-point games.
If a division has fewer than five players or teams, it may be combined with another closely matched group.
Team Match Structure (4 Doubles Games)
* Each player competes twice with different partners
* No player may have the same partner twice within a round.
* Each player must play once in G1/G2 and once in G3/G4
* Elite Division Only will play men’s doubles, women’s doubles and 2 mixed doubles matches.
* If games are tied 2-2, tie break will be a 15 point Singles Showdown (singles points, rotating players every 4 rallies).
Scoring, Timing & Warm‑Up
* Rally scoring to 15, win by 2; switch at 11
* Timeouts: One 1‑minute timeout per game; 1‑minute side‑change timeout.
* Continuous points: no freeze; no win‑on‑serve requirement.
* Pool play: All four games are played regardless of the team match score.
Pools, Seeding & Finals
* Saturday Pool Play: Round‑robin pool play within division pool. There may be multiple pools per division.
* Seeding will be based on aggregate Team DUPR.
* Sunday Finals: Single elimination bracket within division, with Gold/Silver and Bronze/4th medal matches to 21. Seeding based on pool play results. Every team guaranteed 1 match on Sunday. (Finals day matches may be called at 3–0, G4 not required.)
Team Formation
* Age/Skill Teams may consist of 4 players of any gender combination.
* Elite Division (18U, Team Minimum DUPR 16.000) MUST consist of 2 boys and 2 girls.
* At time of registration, each player’s DUPR will be added together to determine the total team DUPR for division assignment. Two weeks prior to event competition, NJP will review total Team DUPRs and reserves the right to make division adjustments if a Team’s DUPR aggregate changes signficantly.
* NJP will NOT facilitate Team formation for NJP Team Showdown. Players may use the “contact” feature on the registration page to contact other Free Agent players.
