Ratings
All UTPR ratings will be updated prior to creating the final brackets/schedule to ensure accurate brackets. Please make sure your rating is correct. If you self-rated, you will be put into the bracket indicated in your profile.
We do not use DUPR ratings as we have no easy way to cross-reference registered players with possible DUPR ratings.

              Refund Policy
              Players may withdraw for a full refund up to 24 hours before their bracket plays. No processing fees! (We think they are silly too.)
              National Pickleball events are outdoor events. If weather or any other unforeseen circumstance occurs, National Pickleball will do all it can to play matches. If brackets are in mid-play when a weather or unforeseen circumstance occurs, the situation will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine if the bracket may be finished or if winners may be determined. If we are able to start your event (even if we do not finish it), a refund will not be given. If we are unable to start your event, you will receive a refund for that event (ie. you will only be refunded the event fee(s) - not your full registration fee).
              Players may withdraw for a full refund up to 24 hours before their bracket plays.
              Thank you for your understanding!
