Big Pineapple Doubles Tennis Tournament 2022
REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS: Except for the Open division, BOTH players in the Doubles divisions must be at least 18. If it is necessary to limit the number of participating teams, then priority shall be given to teams that signed up first. One division per player, unless we need players to fill divisions for us.
ENTRY FEES: $38 One Division, $28 2nd Division per player. Tournament fees are nonrefundable within 2 weeks of tournament start date. Players will receive a T-shirt. Trophies will be awarded to the finalists and champions in each Doubles division.
LEVELS OF PLAY: The Doubles tournament is divided into divisions according to USTA (NTRP) ratings and age. The Tournament Committee requires USTA ratings for USTA players and requires self-rating for others and intends to obtain other similar information regarding non-USTA rated players and reserves the right to move players to a more appropriate division.
Misrepresentation of level of play may result in disqualification. Details of criteria for each level are provided at here. Doubles events use combined ratings of both participants, rounded up. For example, 3.5 and 4.0 = 8.0.
Doubles divisions: MW 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0, Open
FORMAT: All Doubles divisions will use a Match Tiebreak (first to 10 by 2) instead of a third set. There is a 2-minute break between the 2nd set and Match Tiebreak. In all Doubles divisions, at 6-6, a Set Tiebreak (first to 7 by 2) will be used. USTA rules will govern play.
TENNIS BALLS: A new can of USTA-approved balls will be provided by the tournament for each match.
DEADLINE FOR ENTRY: October 16th, 2022.
DRAWS: This is a non-sanctioned tournament. Draws will be available here or from a link on AAACTA's website at least 24 hours before the start of play. Players are responsible for checking the draws for their match start times and locations. Events with an insufficient number of entries may be cancelled or combined with other events at the discretion of the Tournament Director. Players will be notified in advance if this is done. Large draws may require matches in the Doubles divisions to be played on weekdays.
