Other Registration Info

Diamond Regionals qualifications and the Diamond Amateur Championship
(at Pictona, Holly Hill, Fl) qualifications.
 
 
The USA Pickleball Diamond Amateur Championship will be held Dec. 3-10 and hosted by Pictona at
Holly Hill in Florida—one of the nation’s finest facilities, featuring 49 courts. Diamond Amateur
Championship gold medalists will earn Golden Tickets—the ability to pre-register—for the 2024 USA
Pickleball National Championships.
USA Pickleball Diamond Amateur Championship Qualification:
● All gold and silver medalists from the 12 Diamond Amateur Regional tournaments are eligible
and can then pre-register during Phase I of the registration process. Please note that winning
gold or silver does not guarantee automatic placement in the event, as all players must still
pre-register and pay to secure their spot.
● All other participants from Diamond Amateur Regional tournaments are eligible to register
during Phase II, pending availability within individual brackets.
● All current USA Pickleball members are eligible to register during Phase III, pending availability
within individual brackets.
● ALL PLAYERS MUST BE A CURRENT USA PICKLEBALL MEMBER at time of registration through
end of the Diamond Amateur Championship. Renew your membership here.
Additional Player Information:
● Combined brackets in the Diamond Regionals will award medals, as well as pre-registration
for Gold and Silver medalists, for the Diamond Amateur Championship within each event that
comprises the combined bracket.
● Likewise, combined brackets in the Diamond Amateur Championship will award medals. In
addition, gold medal winners of all brackets, including combined brackets winners, will
receive Golden Tickets to the 2024 USA Pickleball National Championships.
● Players that are registered to play in a 70+, 75+, or 80+ brackets in a Diamond Regional
tournament and the bracket must be combined due to a lack of teams, ALL players in said
bracket will receive a Diamond Passport to the Diamond Amateur Championships. This is to
encourage more participation in Diamond Regional events for 70 and above age groups.
 
● A doubles player is not required to play alongside the same partner with whom he/she
earned eligibility for Phase I pre-registration. However, if the new replacement partner did
not also qualify for Phase I pre-registration, the doubles team will not be able to register until
either Phase II or Phase III.
 
Format:
• All events, including singles, will offer a pool-play format. If there are not enough teams for pool
play, then a round-robin bracket will be played.
• The top-four teams (from each pool or round-robin bracket) will move forward to the next
round.
• All pool-play matches, as well as all pre-medal matches, will be one game to 15, win by two
points. The medal matches will be best two-out-of-three games, win by two points.
• The gold-medal winners of each event will earn a Golden Ticket to the 2024 USA Pickleball
National Championships.
• This is a MMP format with our goal to have referees for all matches.
Tentative Registration Schedule:
Phase 1 Pre-Registration: Early October 2023
Phase 2 Lottery: Mid-October 2023
