Pickleball tournament guides

Practical guides for pickleball players and organisers in Melbourne and across Victoria, covering first tournaments, DUPR gating, and scoring round robins.

Use them alongside the Melbourne and Victorian tournament calendars.

• Your first pickleball tournament in Melbourne: how to find an event, what DUPR and Pickleball Australia membership mean, rego basics and what to bring.
• DUPR gating at Victorian pickleball tournaments: what a DUPR gate is, how to check your rating, and what to do if you're unrated or borderline.
• How to score a pickleball round robin: for organisers and TDs — standings, no-shows, live results, and a link to the Dinkcredible scorer.
