FORMAT
IPN Team PIckleball is an innovative MLP Style team competition where teams of 4 same gender players compete against each other in an engaging format, with twists on traditional match-ups and scoring for games, matches, and tiebreakers.
COIN TOSS
At the start of each match, there will be a coin toss (or similar random selection). The
winner will make a choice between these three options:
● Choose to be either the Home or the Away team
● Choose to start each game serving or receiving (if you choose serve, your team will serve first throughout the match including the tiebreaker if needed)
● Choose which end of the court to start.
After the winner makes a choice, the loser will make a choice between the two
remaining options. After the loser makes their choice, the winner will make a decision
on the last option available.
The player order will be decided at each match coin flip with Home team reacting to visitor player selection. The games for each match will be played in the following order:
Team A player 1 & 2 vs Team B player 1 & 2
Team A player 3 & 4 vs Team B Player 3 & 4
Team A player 1 & 3 vs Team B player 1 & 3
Team A player 2 & 4 vs Team B player 2 & 4
IPN Team Pickleball team matches are composed of four 21-point games, rally scoring. You must win by 2 and win on your serve. The away team sets their lineup first and the lineup is the same for the four games in that match.
If both teams are tied at 2-2 after the 4 games are played, they’ll go to a tiebreaker where one person from each team plays singles against the other team’s player, switching players every three rallies until someone gets to 15 and wins by two points. The home team will set their lineup first for the tiebreaker.
To sign up for any IPN Team event, a DUPR account is required at the time of registration. Not rated players can play, however their estimated rating will be verified by the tournament director. All players must join the InPickle Nation DUPR Digital Club via their DUPR app.
