This is an open gender tournament which means: For doubles you can have a male/male team, a male/female team or a female/female team; For singles, it's combined so women and men will face each other in each skill level bracket.
Skill Level Guidelines: Skill levels for events will be determined using DUPR (NOT self-rating). Ratings will be reviewed at registration closing. We reserve the right to move you to appropriate skill level if rating has changed since registration. If a player has no DUPR rating, the self-rating from the player's profile will apply.
