Sleep in Heavenly Peace is a non-profit organziation committed to ending childhood bedlessness. Right now, approximately 2-3 percent of children in communities across America are experiencing childhood bedlessness. What does this look like? Children sleeping on floors, sharing beds with multiple siblings, or trying to rest on worn-out couches and torn air mattresses. While we’ve provided a quarter-million beds, we’ve received over one million bed requests—with millions more children potentially in need across North America. This tournament is dedicated to and for the benefit of this worthy cause. The tournament is open to the public.

On Saturday, July 26th, we are hosting a mens', womens' and juniors' doubles tournament. We'll have a round robin format with a medal rounds for the top 4 from each division. You may sign up without a partner, if necessary. We will assist you with the location of a partner. The tournament will be divided into categories based upon players' skill level, age and gender. There will be four competitions for men and two for women. The Junior division will be open to any player under 18 years of age. The men's competitions are: Beginners, defined as players rated 2.0 to 3.0; Intermediates, defined as players rated 3.5; Advanced, defined as players rated 4.0; and Champions for players 4.5 and above. The women's competitions are: Beginners, defined as players rated 2.0 to 3.0; Intermediates, defined as players rated 3.5 and above. The Junior divisions include 16 and under beginners and 17 to 21 Intermediate and Advanced (3.5-4.5 rated players).
Each division will play a round robin with the number of games dependent on the number of entrants. We will combine divisions if there are not enough players for a bracket, or move players if necessary to balance the groups.
