DUPR Ratings & Scores
All scores will be entered into DUPR and all participants will need to have a DUPR ID prior to registering. Get your DUPR ID.
In doubles, both players MUST play in the DUPR bracket (or a higher one) of the highest rated player. In singles, all players MUST play in the bracket (or a higher one) associated with their DUPR rating. Players with no DUPR rating (NR) should select the bracket closest to their estimated skill level.
Please note that players will be moved to a higher bracket if they register for a bracket lower than their DUPR rating.
Referees
Participants loved having referees at their matches during the 2024 Autumn Invitational Tournament so we’ll be bringing them back this year! We’ll try to have as many gold medal and bronze medal matches refereed as possible and, based on availability, other round robin matches will have refs as well.
Registration and Cancellation Deadlines
All registrations must be submitted by Thursday, April 17, 2025 at midnight. A full refund will be given if cancellation is prior to Thursday, April 17, 2025 at midnight.
