FAQ for Pickle Fest 2025

How do teams earn points to win a team trophy?
Each Team will be composed of doubles teams of players with multiple skill levels. Your doubles match will be against a team with the same skill level. Teams have opportunities to accrue wins in all of the skill levels.
Each game won in any skill bracket = 1 point for your Team. Trophies go to the Teams that win the most points at the end of the day. So for example, if a doubles team in a 2.5-2.75 skill level from Team A wins a game, they earn 1 point for their Team. If a doubles team in a 3.25-3.5 bracket from Team A wins a game, they also earn 1 point for their Team. So then, Team A will have accrued 2 points.

Will players need to be available for the entire day?
Ideally you would play your games against opponents within your skill level pretty much back to back, or as soon as the next court/team is available. So potentially you might play all your games within a 60-90 minute period and then cheer on your teammates of other skill levels the rest of the time.

How many games will I play?
We’re guaranteeing at least 3 games per person with the assumption that we’ll have at minimum 4 Teams. Total games per person could be more than 3 depending on how many people register. Registration deadline is May 15, so we’ll have a better idea after that date how many games you will play.

Are all games mixed doubles or same gender doubles?
This is a co-ed event, so games could be either mixed or same gender.

Can my family and friends attend the BBQ at the end of the day?
Yes! The more the merrier! Friends and family are welcome to come cheer on your team, and stay for the BBQ (at no extra cost).
