Welcome to Southern Pickleball's Tennessee State Tournament. Nestled in the foothills of the scenic Appalachian Mountains, Johnson City, Tennessee combines big-city amenities, small-town Southern charm, and world-class outdoor recreation into a travel destination for everyone. When players aren't on the pickleball court, they will have plenty of opportunities to explore Johnson City's hip downtown or hike/bike some of the town's many trails.
Registration Cost is $60 and includes one event. Additional events are $15. Tournament T-Shirts will be provided to all participants. The last day to register and receive a T-Shirt is Thursday, September 12th 12pm ET. The last day to register for the tournament is September 22nd unless the tournament reaches capacity prior to this date.
The schedule is as follows:
Friday, September 27 - Men's and Women's Singles (starting in the afternoon)
Saturday, September 28 - Men's and Women's Doubles
Sunday, September 29 - Mixed Doubles
Competition each day may begin as early as 8:00 AM except singles which will start on Friday afternoon. Specific start times for each event will be posted and emailed to players approximately one week prior to the event.
Format of play will be round robin followed by medal brackets or medal matches.
As registration proceeds, tournament management reserves the option to combine brackets as needed if brackets do not fill. If brackets are combined to create playable brackets, awards will be based on the original division and not the combined bracket. Brackets will be combined by age if possible to avoid combining skills.
Skills levels include 2.5,3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 4.5+.
Age groups are 15+, 35+, 50+, 60+, 70+
A team must play at the skill level of the higher rated player (or higher) and the age group of the younger player. Age is calculated as of 12/31/2024.
RATINGS
- PickleballBrackets.com ratings will be used.
-Players with a UTPR or DUPR rating that is higher than their PickleballBrackets.com calculated tournament rating may be moved to the higher level at the discretion of the tournament director.
