The JCC Double Elimination Pickleball Tournament is BACK! Join us for a fun-filled day of community building on our six indoor pickleball courts!
TWO DIVISION TOURNAMENT: This tournament is divided into two divisions - Advanced Beginner (2.0-2.75) and Intermediate (3.0 +). We will be splitting the tournament into two divisions to ensure fair competition and allow players to compete against similar skill-level opponents. Each division will play on three pickleball courts. *Divisions may merge based on total teams in each division.
REGISTRATION: Before you register, please review the following level descriptions: •Advanced beginner 2.0-2.75 | You know the rules, how to keep score but remain inconsistent in your strategy and shot selection/execution. You're looking to enjoy some socialization on the court in a fairly casual atmosphere. Winning is secondary! •Intermediate 3.0+ | You are very comfortable playing the game and can withstand/execute faster-paced play as well as attempting to control pace-of-play. You're looking to win! You're OK playing against better players and motivates you to get better and improve!
