HOME COURT PADDLE

​

​​

WHAT IT IS

 

A community rivalry-based competition woven into the Jingle Jam matches. Each point you and your partner score during your matches add to your Paddle Battle team’s cumulative total. At the end of the tournament, one Men’s, one Women’s, and one Mixed Doubles Home Court Paddle Battle Champion team will be awarded the traveling trophy plus yearlong BRAGGING RIGHTS!

 

Last year the winners were:

​

Men’s Doubles – Saddlebrooke Ranch

Women’s Doubles – Ace Pickleball Club

Mixed Doubles – Tucson Racquet and Fitness Club

 

WHAT IT’S NOT

 

A separate event with extra matches, extra fees, or mandatory participation. You and your partner will still play for gold, silver, and bronze awards in your age/skill bracket.

 

HOW IT WORKS

 

• A Home Court Team = minimum of 3 partner teams (6 players), maximum 5 partner teams (10 players).

• Teams can represent courts, member clubs, or APPL teams.

• Teams can be made up of different age and skill levels.

• Courts and member club teams can field one, two, or all three divisions: Men’s, Women’s, and Mixed Doubles.

• When you and your partner register for the Jingle Jam, select your age/skill bracket as usual.

• To join the Paddle Battle, check the YES and select your court/club from the drop-down list (or write one in).

• During the round robin, each point you and your partner score adds to your Paddle Battle team’s cumulative total.

• The highest total score in each division = Champion + Traveling Trophy + Year-long bragging rights.

​

​

IMPORTANT 

• There are a maximum of 5 Paddle Battle teams per court, member club, or APPL team. We will wait list addition teams in case of substitutions.

• Once 5 teams have said YES, we will notify the members of each Paddle Battle team so that you know who the other team members are.
