Additional Information
• All players, volunteers, spectators and vendors over the age of 11 will be required to show valid proof of full COVID-19 vaccination in order to enter the facility. To keep everyone on site as safe as possible, no exceptions to this policy will be allowed.
• Enter as a team or look under 'Players Needing A Partner' to find a partner
• If the partner hasn't completed their registration within five days of the first partner registering, the team will be automatically moved to the waitlist. When the identified partner registers after the five day grace period, the team will automatically move from the wait list back to the active list if there is a slot available.
• In the case of wait lists, in doubles events - teams will take priority over individuals. Our goal is to accommodate as many people as the schedule will allow - but at the same time have a well-rounded tournament with representation from all skill levels.
• If this is the first time you will participate in a tournament which uses the Pickleball Brackets system, give careful thought to the skill levels you recorded in your Player Profile. These skill levels plus .250 will be the starting point for your tournament rating calculation. To assist with validating the starting point for your tournament ratings, please complete the online Canadian Tournament Player Rating form by copying and pasting this link in a browser window: https://pickleballcanada.org/play/competitive-pickleball/ratings-2021/
• Experienced tournament players are required to enter at the highest of their current Pickleball Brackets tournament rating or UTPR as of the date of registration.
• Participants may play up a skill level or down in age at the discretion of the tournament director.
• Age brackets will be combined if the number of entries does not support separating brackets by age.
• Medals will be awarded to the top three teams in each (combined) bracket.
• The tournament committee reserves the right to place players in their appropriate skill level category and to combine brackets based on registrations.
• Level 1 Referees will be compensated $5 per match; Level 2 Referees $7 per match; Certified Referees $10 per match. Volunteer referees with the appropriate training are also encouraged to referee, space permitting.
MINORS MUST BE ACCOMPANIED BY A RESPONSIBLE ADULT.
