🎾 PICKLEBOLA.PH This is a DUPR meet. All matches will be submitted. 📍 Vantage Pickleball Courts 🤝 Friendly competition. Organized matches. Balanced court time. Join us for a focused but friendly three-hour doubles session at Vantage Pickleball Courts! 👥 Only 8 players 🎾 A maximum of two consecutive games per player, followed by at least one rest round. The schedule will combine single-game turns and occasional back-to-back games to allow more variety in partners and opponents across the full player pool. ⚖️ The organizer will distribute games and rest as evenly as possible, targeting six games per player. Strict play–rest alternation is not guaranteed. Late arrivals, temporary breaks, early departures or court delays may require adjustments to upcoming matches and may reduce a player’s total games. Matches already started or completed will remain unchanged. 📊 PLAYER ELIGIBILITY ✅ Maximum of 8 confirmed players Registration is subject to rating eligibility, completion of the membership requirements, available space and payment confirmation. The organizer will aim to vary opponents and avoid exact rematches where practical. Unique partners or opponents for every game cannot be guaranteed. 📅 DATE, TIME AND LOCATION 🗓️ THURSDAY NIGHTS 📍 Vantage Pickleball Courts 🏠 1 FVR Road, Marikina City, 1800 Metro Manila 🕣 Arrival and check-in: 8:45 PM 🏁 Matches begin: 9:00 PM sharp 🕛 Session ends: 12:00 midnight, entering Friday ⏱️ Three-hour booking 🏟️ 1 court reserved Please arrive at least 15 minutes early for attendance checks and final partnership adjustments.

Six games per player is a planning target, not a guarantee. Long rallies, attendance changes and court delays may reduce the number completed before midnight. ⏱️ MATCH SCORING AND TIME LIMIT 🏆 Games to 11 points, win by two, capped at 12. Examples: ✅ 11–9: game ends ✅ 12–10: game ends ✅ 11–11: next scoring point wins, 12–11 Normal side-out scoring applies during regular play. Each round has a 15-minute allocation, with approximately 13 minutes for play and two minutes for recording scores and changing courts. 📣 When the organizer signals the end of playing time: • Finish the rally already in progress. • If the score is unequal, the team ahead wins. • If the score is tied, play one deciding rally. • For that deciding rally, the next server follows the normal service order. Whichever team wins the rally earns one point and wins the match, whether serving or receiving. • Record the actual final score and clear the court promptly. The deciding-rally procedure is a special event rule that will be explained before play. The timer follows the scheduled round start. A late start does not reset or extend the round. Please retrieve balls promptly, avoid unnecessary delays and be ready when your match is called. Safety interruptions will be managed by the organizer. 💳 TRANSPARENT SHARED COST The organizer is not making a profit from this event. 🏟️ Court rental: ₱700 × three hours = ₱2,100.00 👥 Equal share: ₱2,100 ÷ 8 players = ₱262.50 per player 🏢 Separate Vantage facility fee: ₱100 per player, payable directly to the venue 💰 Total amount to budget: ₱362.50 per player 📱 PAYMENT TO THE ORGANIZER Amount: ₱262.50 per player Please pay the separate ₱100 facility fee directly to Vantage upon arrival. ⏳ ELIGIBILITY APPROVAL AND PAYMENT DEADLINE 1️⃣ Complete the registration and membership requirements below.
