Pickleball Tournament  

Any company that is registered for the 2025 Community Cup can enter one (1) team of two (2) participants in the Pickleball Tournament in either the Novice/Advanced Novice Tournament or the Intermediate/Advanced Tournament. Companies cannot register more than one team. The tournament brackets will be based on self-assigned team skill level ratings, not divisions. The team can be the same gender or mixed.  The tournaments are limited to 16 teams each and will be first-come, first-served until capacity. Once the bracket is full, companies can register on the waitlist.   

To register your team, search your company name and select the Pickleball rating tournament your company will compete in. Complete the registration and include your two (2) team representatives.  

PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT RULES  
All competing teams must know the basics of pickleball and can keep score.  

The pickleball tournament will be played under the USA Picklelball Offical Rules. Players are responsible for self-reporting line calls based on the principle of giving their opponents the benefit of the doubt when in doubt.  Teams may include one (1) substitute player if an original player drops before tournament play or in case of an injury during tournament play. Teams will advance by playing games to 11 and win by 2 points or the team with the highest score at the end of 12-minute play. Line calls will be self-reported. Tournament play and seeding will depend on registration. Every team will be guaranteed to play at least two games. Teams are expected to wear their team shirts.  

PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT TEAM SCORING  

The top four (4) teams in each rating bracket tournament will be awarded 100, 75, 50 and 25 points accordingly, and all teams participating will receive 10 points if they do not place. It is possible for two teams from the same Cup division to place and earn points in both rating brackets
