Registration is completed by DUPR skill level. DUPR ratings will be updated before setting brackets, and teams moved up where required. No one will be lowered, unless requested by the players. Groups with less than 4 teams/players may be combined to create viable brackets at the discretion of the Tournament Director. Start times for brackets to be posted on October 1st, subject to change until the day before play.
Partners must register within 3 days of each other. Players without a partner will be moved to the Wait List, and can be moved back to play, as long as there are open spots, after the second player registers. All players are required to have a DUPR profile tied to your account in order to play.

Anyone can sign up into a higher rated division - a 2.6 can register in the 3.499 with no problems. However, a 3.5 cannot register in a 3.499 and below division.
