JUNIOR PICKLEBALL TOURNAMENT SUMMER SERIES (10U, 12U & 16U Divisions)
June 14th & 28th, July 12th & 26th, August 9th & 23rd 9:00am-12:00pm
Get ready for a fun and competitive summer of pickleball! Our Junior Pickleball Tournament Series is designed to give players valuable match experience in an exciting and supportive environment.
Players will compete in a Rotating Partner Round Robin format, meaning everyone will play multiple games while partnering with every other player during the tournament. This format helps players develop teamwork, communication, strategy, and adaptability while competing against the entire field.
Standings will be determined by overall wins and total games won throughout the summer series, making every match important from start to finish. The first five tournaments will act as the regular season, with players earning points and improving their standings each week.
The series will all lead up to our Championship Tournament on August 23rd, where players will compete in a Double Elimination Tournament to crown the summer champion. Seeding for the championship event will be determined by the total number of games won across the first five tournaments, rewarding players for consistent performance throughout the summer.
