Division

4.0 & Under Any Gender Rotating Partner Round Robin
Players register individually, no partner needed. You'll play with a different partner each game in a rotating format.
  • 32 players. Groups are subject to our judgment. Competitive balance and good play will be prioritized by the committee.
  • Rotating-partner events fill quickly. If the division is full, join the waitlist.

Eligibility

  • Open to players at 4.0 and under.
  • No DUPR rating? You can still play. Register as usual, and the Tournament Committee will place you.
  • EPPA's three tournament eligibility rules apply: your DUPR sets your floor, recent results in a higher division count, and the Tournament Committee makes the rare close call privately.

Cost

$25 for EPPA members, $50 for non-EPPA members.
Everyone is required to register and pay online. If you haven't fully paid by the registration deadline, we'll move a player from the waitlist into your spot.
Registration closes Wednesday, November 4 at 9:00 PM.

Playing Format

  • Rotating-partner round robin: a different partner every game, and you earn your own record.
  • Games to 11.
  • Standings by wins, then point differential.
  • Medals to the top three in each group.
General:
  • For games to 11, teams switch sides when either team reaches 6 points.
  • Each team is allowed one one-minute timeout per game.
  • All other IFP/USAPA rules are in effect.

Lifetime. (The board voted on 9/28 to use the Lifetime ball for tournament play, so start practicing with it now.)

Paddles

Any paddle on the USA Pickleball or UPA-A approved paddle list.

Eye Protection

Strongly encouraged at every level.

Semi-permanent (Douglas cabled nets)

Food / Drink

A water fountain and bottled water will be available. Players may bring sports drinks but water only is allowed on courts. Snacks are permitted in lobby areas only.

Restrooms

Restrooms are available in the ATP lobby and on the Westwood side.

Referees & Sportsmanship

Matches are self-officiated. Players are expected to maintain good sportsmanship.
Line calls should only be made when clearly seen as out. If unsure, the ball is considered in. Players are expected to call faults on themselves or their partner.

We look forward to a great afternoon of pickleball!
