USA PICKLEBALL SANCTIONED TOURNAMENT:
This tournament participates in USA Pickleball's Tiered Point System (TPS), which rewards eligible players with points for participating and additional points based on tournament performance. TPS points accumulate through sanctioned competition and can help players become eligible to compete at USA Pickleball Nationals. The number of points available depends on the tournament's TPS tier, which considers factors such as tournament size and referee format.
The North Sector Winter Classic is an officially sanctioned USA Pickleball tournament. All players must have an active USA Pickleball membership valid through the tournament dates to participate.
Registration Fees
First Event: $65
Second Event: $25
Players participating in two events will pay a total tournament registration fee of $90.
Tournament Format
Brackets will begin with round-robin play, with playoff and medal rounds determined by each bracket's size. Exact formats may vary depending on registration numbers.
The Tournament Director reserves the right to combine skill and/or age divisions when necessary to ensure viable brackets and quality competition.
Players are responsible for registering in the appropriate division and ensuring that all registration and USA Pickleball membership information is accurate and current.
Player Check-In
Players should arrive and check in at least 30 minutes before their scheduled start time. We will communicate specific start times and tournament schedules after registration closes and brackets are finalized.
