How It Works:

Courts and teams are designated at random to start.

Win a game? Move up a court. Lose? Move down. This ensures everyone finds the right level of competition. The event organizer will decide the split format on the day of play.

Play with respect—sportsmanship matters, but here’s your chance to push your game in a competitive setting.

Games are timed to 10 minutes so that all courts come off at the same time.

This is the perfect format for those who want a challenge while still enjoying the social side of pickleball.
