Play: Individuals’ tournament – actual play is with a revolving partner. 6 Pickleball courts, 5 players per court, so up to 30 players. Each player is given a random number which determines their starting position, their teammates and opposition for Round 1.  One player will sit out for each game. Each player earns the number of points their doubles team earns, at the end of the first game, players rotate according to their random number.  Play continues in this manner until each player has played 5 games and played with all players as a partner for doubles play.  At the end of Round 1, the 6 players (ie 1 per court) with the most points move to Round 2. Round 2 progresses in a similar style to Round1 to determine a winner. There will be prizes awarded to the top two players after both rounds are completed.
