Partner replacement policy

Partner Replacement Policy Before Registration Closes:
Players may add a partner or replace a partner at any time prior to registration closing.  If the division is closed due to capacity of entries being reached during the open registration dates, the player or team would be put on a wait list. 

Partner Replacement Policy After Registration Closes:
Players must have partners and be paid when registrations close to be considered as a player and team in the tournament.  The tournament will not take any new entries for a player replacement or new team entries after registrations have closed.   If a team is registered and paid by the registration deadline then a player may replace a partner due to injury, illness, death or any emergency as long as that replacement is already registered in the tournament and is identified by 4pm the day before the draw is to be played.  The only time a new registrant would be allowed is if there wasn't an eligible replacement already registered in the tournament.   Changes to pro draws can have significant changes to seedings when a partner is replaced, which is why there is a deadline of 4pm the day before the draw plays as time is required to make the seeding adjustments before the draws are published.  

Skill Player Partner Replacement Policy:

Any registered player losing a partner, after registrations have closed, must replace that partner with an already registered player. The replacement must be in the same skill/age group that you are scheduled to play. Players can play down in age and up in skill.  Replacements need to be known and communicated to the registration coordinator listed on the CONTACT page by 4pm the day before you are scheduled to play.  Replacements can be found on the players needing partners list, which can be found on pickleballtournaments.com.

Payment of replacement players:
If registration deadline hasn't passed the player withdrawing from the event would be refunded less $25 withdrawal fee and the player entering the event would need to pay. 

If registration deadline has passed, then the player withdrawing would not be refunded and would have to be reimbursed by the replacement player.
