The 2024 Seabeck Women's Classic will be held Sept. 26-29, 2024 at the dedicated outdoor pickleball courts located at the Seabeck Community & Event Center (15565 Seabeck Hwy NW, Seabeck WA 98380).

This four-day event will maximize playing time by limiting the number of players to the number of court spaces available for each playing session. The only waiting you may encounter between games will be for your opponents to finish their previous game or possible weather delays.

*** PLEASE NOTE THE BRACKET DEFINITIONS. They are based on Pickleball Brackets Ratings (PBR). For example, if you are a 3.65-rated player "4.0 and under" is the correct bracket. If you are a 3.35 player, "3.5 and under" is the ideal bracket.

The community of Seabeck is located along the Hood Canal about 8 miles or 15 minutes west of Silverdale, WA. Some common distances and travel times from larger communities include:

Bremerton (15 miles / 25 minutes)

Bainbridge Ferry Terminal ( 28 miles / 40 minutes)

Two different divisions will be scheduled per day - a morning session and an afternoon session. Each division will be limited to a maximum of eight teams and played in a round-robin format. Games are to 11, win by 2. You can expect seven games in round robin format when your division fills.

The top four teams in round robin play will advance to the playoffs. In the semifinals the top seed will play the fourth seed, with the second and third seeds competing against each other.

You and your partner must register separately. Once registered, your partner must register within 3 days or YOU WILL BE MOVED TO THE WAITING LIST and your spot is no longer secure as the event may fill. For people who have registered and are still on the waiting list at the end of the tournament, a full refund will be issued, less $10.

This is an outdoor tournament in late September. No alternate indoor venue has been planned and it is a possibility that weather could become an issue.

In the event of a rainout where no games were held players will receive a 50-percent refund.

ALL REFUNDS will be sent within 7 days after the tournament is completed.
