Game Rules
All results will be inputted into DUPR within a week of the tournament ending.
After each game is finished, one member from the winning team MUST report the score to the Fusion Sports Team Member who will be at the concession stand located in the lobby area. If nobody reports your score, it will not be recorded.
If your team is not present 5 minutes after the time your team is supposed to play, this may result in your team forfeiting the game. This will give the other team an automatic win.
There is NO WARMUP before each game. Teams will have the opportunity to warmup prior to the start of their event.
Each team will have one 60 second timeout that they can use during the game at their discretion.
The serving team will decide which side of the court they would like to start on.
In the Single Elimination part of the tournament, the higher seed will have the choice of deciding whether they would like to serve first OR what side they would like to start out on.
After 6 points, teams will switch sides.
There are no line judges! It is the receiving teams responsibility to call a ball "out". In the case of an OBVIOUS rule violation, this call can be made by either team.
If there is a team that is being OBVIOUSLY dishonest in their calls, please report this to a Fusion Sports Team Member ASAP. The team being dishonest will be given a warning for their behavior and if it keeps happening, the team given the warning can be kicked out of the tournament.
Championship Game - Since the championship game will have money on the line, a Fusion Sports Team Member will be watching to make sure that both teams are playing fairly and has the ability to make or overturn any call made by the players.
No fighting or foul language will be tolerated. Please be respectful of your opponent and understand that we are all here to have fun😁
Other Important Points (Cash Prize Info, Facility Specifics, Etc.)
Medals will be awarded to teams finishing in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Place in each of the Double's Events and the Single's Events.
Game Ball - Franklin X-40
All results will be inputted into DUPR within a week of the tournament ending.
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. We will have custom dividers between all of the courts to prevent balls going into other courts.
Grip Spray for your shoes will be available. This will help make sure that your shoes have the best traction.
Make sure to bring plenty of food/snacks! If your team goes far in the tournament, you will be playing A LOT of pickleball
