Tournaments
Have questions?
Do tournaments include food and drink?
All tournaments we host include food and drinks for players. Family and friends are, of course, welcome to attend and cheer on the participants; however, they should plan to bring their own refreshments while watching the event.
How many games are usually guaranteed for players at Tournaments?
The number of matches played depends on the tournament format. For round robin tournaments, players typically compete in a minimum of 5–6 games. In bracket play, players are guaranteed at least 2–3 matches, with each match played as a best-of-three games format.
For you MLP style tournaments do we sign up as a team or individually?
Some tournaments at Scripps Ranch Swim & Racquet Club are members-only. For these events, Connor typically drafts the teams himself, with some assistance, to ensure the teams are as balanced as possible based on his knowledge of the players.
For non-member tournaments, players can sign up as a team with anyone they choose, provided all participants meet the skill level requirements specified for the event.
Are your tournaments DUPR Sanctioned?
In general, most of our tournaments are not sanctioned by the USAPA/DUPR, though this may change in the future for higher-level events as we continue to expand and provide more competitive opportunities for advanced players.
