Tournament FAQs

Queens of the Court is the original all-women's MLP-style pickleball tournament. Our goal is to celebrate the community, strengths, and skill of women in pickleball, starting on International Women's Day!

A match is played between teams and consists of four doubles games, played by different players combinations.

Team A vs Team B Example:

  • • Game 1: A1 & A2 vs B1 & B2
  • • Game 2: A3 & A4 vs B3 & B4
  • • Game 3: A1 & A3 vs B1 & B3
  • • Game 4: A2 & A4 vs B2 & B4

Traditionally, MLP-style format is four players per team. However, in Queens of the Court, you can have up to six players on the roster. Only four players play in each match, and for each match, the DUPR aggregate must be below the required number.

DUPR 12: Aggregate 12.3, player max 3.6
DUPR 14: Aggregate 14.3, player max 4.1
DUPR 16: Aggregate 16.3, player max 4.6
Open: Max aggregate 22.3, no individual max

If any player is not rated, they will be assigned a score (not a DUPR rating) for purposes of the tournament only. For example, unrated DUPR 12 players are assigned 3.0.

No. In the spirit of community, not reporting game scores to DUPR allows players to play with any partner without fear of negatively affecting your DUPR rating.

A Reignmaker is our signature tiebreaker. If a playoff match is tied 2-2, teams rotate through different pairings in a race to 11 points using rally scoring. It is fast, strategic, and high-stakes!
