Casa Autumn Classic **Galleria**

📈 DUPR & DIVISION REQUIREMENTS

We use DUPR to help provide fair and competitive play.

All tournament results will be uploaded directly to DUPR.

Beginner — Below 3.000
3.0 — 3.000 to 3.499
3.5 — 3.500 to 3.999
4.0 — 4.000 to 4.499
4.5 — 4.500+

Senior Division — Must be 50+

Junior Divisions — 10U • 12U • 14U • 16U

"U" means "& Under."

For example, 10U = 10 & Under and 12U = 12 & Under.

Players must compete in a division aligned with their DUPR rating.

If only one DUPR rating is available, that rating may be used to determine eligibility.

If you do not have a DUPR rating, register for the division that best represents your playing level.

For junior and senior divisions, the player's age on the day of the event will determine eligibility.

If divisions need to be combined, players will be contacted first.

Divisions will only be combined up, never down.

⚖️ DUPR INTEGRITY / SANDBAGGING

• Self-entered matches may be reviewed.
• Players under 60% DUPR reliability may be reassigned.
• DUPR ratings at the time of registration determine eligibility.
• Zero tolerance for sandbagging, rating misuse, or intentionally entering an incorrect division.
• The Tournament Director reserves the right to move or remove players when necessary to protect fair play and division integrity.

Make your grandparents proud. We were all beginners once.

🏓 PADDLE POLICY

Only USA Pickleball-approved paddles may be used during the tournament.

Players are responsible for ensuring their paddle appears on the current USA Pickleball Approved Paddle List.

Any paddle deemed non-compliant by tournament staff may not be used in tournament play.

📖 OFFICIAL RULES & RULINGS

The Autumn Classic will follow the current USA Pickleball Official Rulebook as the main standard for tournament play.

If the tournament uses any special scoring formats or event-specific rules, those rules will be communicated separately and will take priority for this event.

Tournament staff may use Casa Pickle's tournament rules reference system to assist with detailed rule situations and help ensure consistent rulings.

The rules reference is a support tool.

The Tournament Director has final authority on all tournament rulings and decisions.

👥 DOUBLES REGISTRATION

Partners should complete registration within 3 days of each other.

Teams without both players registered may be moved to the waitlist.

Once both players have completed registration, the team may be moved into the main draw when space is available.

If the division is full, the team will remain on the waitlist until a spot becomes available.

⏳ WAITLIST POLICY

If a division reaches capacity, additional players or teams may be placed on the waitlist.

Brackets will only be considered for expansion in groups of 4 teams.

Having 4 teams on the waitlist allows Casa Pickle to consider increasing the bracket size, but bracket extensions are not guaranteed.

Players who remain on the waitlist and do not make it into the tournament will receive a full tournament-entry refund.

If a bracket does not receive enough registrations to run, players in that bracket will also receive a full tournament-entry refund.

Please sign up early if you want your bracket to happen.

We always hear, "I was waiting for more people to sign up."

Don't be a follower — be a leader and help build the bracket.

🤝 NEED A PARTNER?

💵 REFUND POLICY

Players who voluntarily withdraw on or before October 16, 2026, will receive a full tournament-entry refund, less a $10 processing fee.

WAITLIST & CANCELED BRACKET EXCEPTIONS

Players who remain on the waitlist and are not admitted into the tournament will receive a full tournament-entry refund.

If Casa Pickle determines that a bracket does not have enough registrations to run, affected players will receive a full tournament-entry refund.
