This is a co-ed event. Sign up with your partner of any age or gender, or without one and we will pair off remaining players for you based on level. Play will be competitive, level-based, and DUPR neutral across demographics.
FORMAT:
Brackets are formed with 16 teams maximum and after each round, you continue playing against a team with the same sequence of wins-losses. For example, after round three, teams who won their first 2 and lost the 3rd play and teams that lost the first and won the next 2 play. Your sequence matters even though all teams have 2 wins and 1 loss.
DUPR RATING:
– DUPR Waterfall guarantees DUPR-neutral play, with all ratings within the range of 3.0-4.0.
– Players’ rating must not exceed DUPR of 4.0. Those with higher ratings than a bracket’s maximum cannot play down.
– Players with a DUPR rating of less than 3.0 can play up, however the tournament director will have the final say on admissions.
Brackets
Play will occur on 6 courts within an approximate 5-hour window. Players sign up with or without a partner. DUPR will create brackets of 16 teams based on ratings after close of registration.
