Well... 👀 the draws are out.

And there are some seriously good match-ups brewing this weekend.
We've got strong players across the divisions, tight competition shaping up and plenty of opponents you may not normally get the chance to play.

Come test yourselves.
Play against someone different and see how you stack up.

And ladies - have a look at that Women's Doubles Draw. We've got some bloody good contenders and I'd love to see more women jump in and make those fields stronger.

GRAB YOUR PARTNER.
PAIRS WHO DARE.

Remember why you started playing pickleball?

Before DUPR. Before divisions. Before you cared quite so much about that little number next to your name.

You played because it was fun.

Then you found your people.

And suddenly weekends looked a little different...

Double Trouble is for that.

Still competitive. Still chasing the win. Still wanting that medal.

Just with the laughter, the people and all the other stuff that made us fall in love with this ridiculous game in the first place.

Grab your person.
Double Trouble. Pairs Who Dare.

I'm genuinely disappointed that I even have to write this.

It's recently been brought to my attention that there may be players deliberately manipulating their DUPR ratings so they can enter lower tournament divisions.

And this really GRINDS MY GEARS.

I spend a lot of time around tournaments. I see the nerves before someone's first event. I see people train, improve, move up divisions and test themselves against better players. I see how much a medal can mean to someone who has worked bloody hard for it.

That's what tournament pickleball should be about.

So when someone deliberately manipulates their rating to play down, you're not just messing with a number on a screen.

You're taking advantage of every player who entered that division honestly.

The person playing their first tournament.
The person who has trained their arse off.
The person who has worked their way towards a podium.
The person who trusted that when they entered a skill division, they would be competing against people who genuinely belonged there.

If you deliberately falsify results, manipulate your rating or create/reset accounts to make yourself eligible for a lower division, let's call it what it is.

It's CHEATING.

I've been pretty vocal about using DUPR as the source of truth for tournament eligibility. I still believe in that.

It takes away the opinions. It takes away the favouritism. It takes away the "but I'm not really a 3.6" conversations.

Your rating is your rating.

But for that system to work, we have to respect its integrity.

DUPR has Community Guidelines that specifically address this type of behaviour, and the information that has been brought to my attention will be referred to them for investigation.

And as a Tournament Director, I will do what I can to protect fair competition at any tournament I'm involved with.

Not because I want to spend my time policing players.

I'd much rather be worrying about court allocations, missing partners and why someone still hasn't read my bloody player email.

But because the overwhelming majority of our players turn up, enter the right division and do the right thing.

They deserve better than this.

If you want the medal or the prize? Then train your arse off and earn the damn thing!

Tournament pickleball is growing incredibly quickly. We get to decide what sort of community grows with it.

I know what I want ours to look like.
That is to be surrounded by good humans.

And, as always...
My No Di****ad Policy applies.
I'm apparently very good at ejecting dicks! Ha. 😜

Pickle Rumble looks a little different this time.

One match.
Three games.

Men’s Doubles.
Women’s Doubles.
Mixed Relay.

All rally scoring to 21.

But the fun bit?

Strategy matters.

Win the toss. Choose the order.
Act or react.
Work out who starts the Mixed Relay.
Work out who finishes it.

And when you’re off court?

You’re not done.

Cheer loudly.
Talk tactics.
Bring the sideline noise.
A little smack talk never hurt anyone. 😏

See you this weekend. X
