Saturday is game day!
Join us for a fun and competitive round-robin style pickleball tournament benefiting The Next Door Recovery. Teams will play five regular matches (standard scoring to 11) in round-robin play, followed by a single-elimination playoff match to determine the winners of each division.
With West Meade's newly expanded 12-court setup, we are able to host 48 teams total across two sessions.
Session One: Check in- 8:30AM | Play begins- 9:00AM
Session Two: Check-in- 11:30AM | Play begins- 12:00PM
Each division will include 24 teams (48 players) competing scross four divisions of six teams each. Divisions will be created based on player experience and skill level to ensure fair and fun competition.
Divisions Include:
Never Played
Beginner (Players must know how to keep score and rally/serve with decent consistency)
Intermediate (~DUPR 3.0 - 3.5)
Advanced (~DUPR 3.5 - 4.0+)
Players will select the option that best describes their level when registering. Teams will be placed into brackets based on these selections.
New Players Welcome! If you sign up for the "Never Played" division, we will host a free beginner orientation on Friday evening where players can learn the basics of pickleball, including scoring, serving, and gameplay. This will help you feel confident and ready when tournament play begins on Saturday.
Final session assignments and brackets will be confirmed 48 hours before the event to ensure the best competitive balance.
Come ready for great matches, great community, and a great cause!
*Tournament is for a good cause and we can't wait for all the fun! While competition will be solid with at-level play, match scores are not being submitted to DUPR.
