Please note: This is an outdoor tournament and weather is a risk. No refunds will be issued in the event of rain.

Cancellation Policy

Players may withdraw for a full refund up to 24 hours before their bracket plays.

National Pickleball events are outdoor events. If weather or any other unforeseen circumstance occurs, National Pickleball will do all it can to play matches. If brackets are in mid play when a weather or unforeseen circumstance occurs, the situation will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis to determine if the bracket may be finished or if winners may be determined.

In the event of inclement weather that requires the cancellation of any events, we will issue a partial refund on the event fees since we will not be paying out the prize money.

Players may withdraw for a full refund up to 24 hours before their bracket plays.

Thank you for your understanding!

If a bracket is unable to finish due to weather and enough matches have been played to determine placements, we will use approved USAPA rules to determine placements and thus prize money distribution. If a bracket has not completed enough matches to determine placement, the distribution of prize money will be at the discretion of both the tournament directors and the remaining players/teams.

USAPA rules will be followed.
