• Anti-Sandbagging Policy - After each team signs up, we will be looking into the previous tournaments they have played in and if necessary, we will move them to a higher skilled division. If this happens to your team, you will be notified via text and email. Of course, it is impossible to completely eliminate sandbagging and we hope that most teams will fairly rate themselves. If you have any questions on what division your team should enter in, please reach out. Click HERE to learn about skill levels.

  
  

• Teams entering in the 4.0 division (Men, Women, or Mixed) must not have a player on the team that has a DUPR higher than 5.0 (with a confidence rating higher than 75) at the time of registration. This is to prevent the 4.0 divisions from having a semi-professional team entering.

• Facility Specifics - Impact Dynamic Training has 12 indoor courts that has a smooth polyurethane surface. Overall, it is a great facility and the ball bounces very much like a typical outdoor court surface. Franklin X-40's will be used at this tournament. We will have custom dividers between all of the courts to prevent balls going into other courts.
