Each player’s DUPR will be verified upon registration and all games will be recorded (We will evaluate doubles and singles DUPR for the singles brackets) – please make sure to have a DUPR account and please have the integrity to play at your skill set (playing up is fine, but playing down is frowned upon). Also, you can play down in age but not up in age.
All Brackets will have a range, and we require EACH PLAYER to play within that range to be fair and competitive – NO MORE TEAM AVERAGES. See examples below:
1. Women’s 3.5-4.0 – Player’s DUPR must a be between this range (it’s ok if you are over the 4.0 in the 100’s or the 1000’s place (i.e. Player is 4.104 we will put you in the 4.0-4.5 Bracket, but if 4.091, you are ok to play in the 3.5-4.0)
2. Men’s 3.0-3.5 – Player’s DUPR must be between this range (if your partner is 2.9 and you are a 3.6 – your partner must play up in the 3.5-4.0 group, or you will need to find another partner)
If you do not have a DUPR account, please create one and contact John@pickleballspaceaz.com to make sure you are in the best suited bracket.
All players must have a liability waiver signed through the Court Reserve App for the Pickleball Space.
