The tournament will be held over Memorial Day weekend, Saturday and Sunday, May 28-29 at the world-class Marquardt-Miles Outdoor Pickleball Courts located at Apex's Simms Street Recreation Center, 11706 West 82nd Avenue, Arvada, CO.

The weekend starts out at 6:00 Friday night with an Early Sign-In where the players can not only get a jump on getting ready for the tournament, but could also get practiced up at the open practice courts!  Men's and Women's Doubles will be held Saturday, and Mixed Doubles will be Sunday.

Currently the brackets are Ages 18-49 (3.0-4.5+), Ages 50-59 (3.0-4.5+), Ages 60-74 (3.0-4.5+) and 75 and up.  Some ages/ratings may need to be combined if not enough players entered to be run independently.
