The Greater Terre Haute Pickleball Association (GTHPA Inc, a 501c3) in collaboration with 812Pickleball is proud to bring this ultra fun tournament for all ages to the amazing Brittlebank Park Pickleball complex in the crossroads of America, Terre Haute, Indiana! Local player and pickleball community favorite, Deli Stinnett, will direct this tournament of men and women of all ages and skills (including JUNIORS!) who will dink and bang it out for court supremacy! This is the end of summer outdoor tournament you don't want to miss. This will be a round robin tourney that is designed to make it a super-great player experience by providing multiple games and a competitive bracket playoff round at the end for the top teams from each division. Each skill level division will play a round robin leading up to a bracket playoff of the top 4 teams which will determine 1st-3rd place. You will register with a partner and stay with your partner the entire round robin (no changing partners, no randomly assigned partners). If you do not have a partner and need help finding a partner, message us and we'll assist you in finding a partner. If a division has less than 4 teams, the division will be combined with another division. If a division cannot be combined due to lack of players/teams, the division will be eliminated and a refund will be given.
