The event has the right to shorten match formats if weather poses scheduling delays.

Please note that if you are playing in a doubles event and your partner does not register within 7 days of when you register, you will automatically be moved to the waitlist. Your spot in the main event will NOT be saved. If (after you are both registered and paid for the event) there is room in the main event, you will be moved back to the main event. If the event has filled up in the meantime, you will remain on the waitlist until a spot opens up.

Fresno Area Pickleball events are outdoor events. If weather or any other unforeseen circumstance occurs Fresno Area Pickleball will do all it can to play matches. If brackets are in mid play when a weather or unforeseen circumstance occurs the situation will be evaluated on a case by case basis to determine if the bracket may be finished or if winners may be determined.

Please drink plenty of water and nutrition so you can play long hours of pickleball and maintain safe.
