Join our DUPR Club
Make sure to join our DUPR club - Just One More Game before the event. Your scores will be added to DUPR in real time.
Our event will follow USAPA rules (see: https://usapickleball.org/what-is-pickleball/official-rules/). Players may ask any questions they have or report any violations at the tournament desk. The tournament director may use their discretion in interpreting or modifying the USAPA rules to suit the specific scenario and ensure fun/competitive play.
Our tournament directors will not be validating all paddles at the events, but any concerns/violations should be reported by players at the tournament desk. If players have concerns about a delaminated or non-approved paddle, please notify the player before the match (when possible) or come to the tournament desk if play has started. The tournament directors have decided that since this is an amateur-only event, we will give players the opportunity to switch paddles (or choose to forfeit) rather than default to a forfeited game as stated in the USAPA rules, especially in light of paddles with an approved stamp that are no longer on the approved list.
