Tournament Procedures
Please check-in at least 30 minutes before your group's scheduled start time. If both players are not in their positions on the court within 10 minutes of the scheduled start time for their group, the team will forfeit the first round (score 0-11 or 0-15, depending on the rules for each group). We will be using the Onix Fuse Indoor Orange Pickleball. Winners will be determined by the total number of wins in the group. If two teams have the same number of wins, winners will be determined by the outcome of their head-to-head games. In the event of a three-way tie, winners will be determined by point differential. Court monitors will record scores for each game, but they will not be referees. Teams must resolve disputes among themselves. Every team must confirm the final score of each game with the court monitor before beginning the next round. Medals will be awarded to the first, second, and third place teams in each division. See you on the court!
