APP TOUR – 2022
Amateurs wanting to play in Pro Events:
- Players may only play in one event per day
- All players must have a minimum 4.5 UTPR rating in the either Singles, Gender Doubles or Mixed Doubles (partners included)
- If the event is full, priority is given to 5.0 UTPR skill rated players over 4.5 UTPR skill rated players.
- If capacity for pro/senior pro bracket has been reached
- players/teams will be moved to an amateur event if there is capacity in the amateur event
- otherwise, you will be placed on the amateur event waitlist
- Amateur players ensure you want to take this risk before signing up for a pro event.
- Players that are ranked in the Top 50 World Pickleball Rankings (WPR) in any category (Singles, Gender Doubles or Mixed Doubles) are not eligible to play in any amateur events. This means if a player is ranked in the top 50 in any category they must play Pro in all categories and are not eligible to play any amateur events.
- Changes to Pro draws can have significant changes to seedings when a partner is replaced, which is why there is a deadline of 12pm the day before the draw plays as time is required to make the seeding adjustments before the draws are published.
- Partner changes are not allowed once the draws have been published; in the event of a partner change, the team would be entered as a withdrawal for the match and the team benefiting from the withdrawal would advance.
- World Pickleball Rankings (WPR), not APP Standings will be used to seed Pro Draws
- UTPR and not APP Standings will be used to seed amateur draws
Playing in Senior Pro/Super Senior Events:
- Senior Pro and Super Senior Pro Events will have no minimum skill requirement to participate.
- A Senior Pro ranked in the Top 10 for the World Pickleball Rankings (WPR) for any category (Singles, Gender Doubles or Mixed Doubles) are NOT ELIGIBLE TO PLAY Super Senior Pro events. This is based on the current WPR on the date the tournament registration closes.
Playing in Amateur Events:
- Players with a UTPR 5.5 or higher are NOT eligible to play in the amateur events
- Players may only play in one event per day.
- Players that are ranked in the Top 50 World Pickleball Rankings (WPR) in any category (Singles, Gender Doubles or Mixed Doubles) are not eligible to play in any amateur events. This means if a player is ranked in the top 50 in any category they must play Pro in all categories and are not eligible to play any amateur events.
- Brackets will be filled on a first come basis.
- As a waitlist develops, we will be managing bracket sizes to accommodate demand.
