FORMAT OF PLAY
Doubles divisions start with round-robin pool play. The top teams from each pool then play in a single-elimination bracket. The format of these games are:
Round-Robin (Pool Play): Score to 11, win by 1
Quarter-Finals and Semi-Finals: Score to 11, win by 2
Medal Matches: Best 2 out of 3 games - score to 11, win by 2
SKILL DIVISIONS
Village Fall Showdown will report scores to DUPR for all divisions in this event.
Each doubles division, besides Open, will have two DUPR caps:
1) Team Average Cap: The combined DUPR ratings of both partners, divided by two, must be below the “Team Avg” specified for that division. For instance, if a 3.0 bracket requires a team average under 3.5, a 3.2 + 3.6 = 6.8 total, divided by two, gives an average of 3.4—qualifying for the 3.0 bracket. Please note: all DUPR scores are calculated out to 3 digits, per DUPR standards
2) Individual Player Cap: Each player’s DUPR rating must remain under the “No Player Over” limit listed for the division. In the above example, if one partner’s DUPR is 3.8, it exceeds the 3.75 cap for the 3.0 division, so that team would have to register for 3.5 instead.
Note: All DUPR scores are calculated out to 3 digits, per DUPR standards.
Not Rated players: If your partner in a doubles event has an NR DUPR rating (no DUPR history), Village Showdown will use the rated partner's DUPR rating as the average. If both players have no DUPR, please select "Contact Tournament" and send a message with you and your partner’s information so the tournament director can help determine your division.
DUPR REVIEW
The Village tournament director will review DUPR scores and win/loss history. Our team conducts DUPR reviews at registration close (all teams not in compliance will be moved after registration close). We do NOT lock your DUPR rating upon sign-up.
We reserve the right to move players between skill brackets based on this data. DUPR scores will change as the players participate over the weekend in multiple events, we do not continually re-evaluate DUPR scores after the final check on registration close.
We require players to compete with integrity in the correct skill division; sandbagging is strictly prohibited. However, players may choose to compete at a higher skill level if they wish.
The tournament director reserves the right to assign or reassign any player to a minimum skill division based on their prior performance history.
DRAW NOTICE
Your draw may change up until the player meeting 30 minutes before the division starts. DUPR compliance reviews, late registrations, and last-minute cancellations can all cause changes in the initial draw for your event.
LATE PARTICIPANTS
If a player shows up more than 15 minutes late to their division start, their match may be logged as a forfeit. We cannot delay division starts for a single player, so you may be removed from your pool entirely if you are late.
