Questions
Frequently asked.
Everything players usually ask before a Match Point tournament.
Registering
Will I get a confirmation, and where?+
Straight after registering you'll see your reference (it starts with MP-) and a private link to your registration page. Save that link, or use "My registration" with your reference and mobile number at any time.
Once we've verified your payment, your registration page changes to "Confirmed".
Paying
How much is the entry fee?+
For Season 2 it's ₹1,800 per team, paid once by whoever registers the team. The fee for every tournament is shown on its page.
DUPR and eligibility
What is DUPR?+
DUPR (Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating) is the global rating system for pickleball. Every player gets a rating, usually between 2.000 and 8.000, based on the scores of their recorded matches. Signing up is free.
Do I need a DUPR rating to play?+
No. You can play even if you don't have a DUPR rating yet. Because Season 2 is DUPR-rated, each player needs a free DUPR account and their DUPR ID; if you don't have a rating, tick "No rating yet" on the registration form.
How do I create a DUPR account and find my DUPR ID?+
- Download the DUPR app (iPhone or Android), or go to dupr.com, and sign up for free.
- Your DUPR ID and your singles and doubles ratings are shown on your profile.
What does "DUPR-rated tournament" mean?+
Every match result is submitted to DUPR, so your games count towards your rating. That's why each player needs a DUPR account and must enter their DUPR ID and current rating when registering.
What does "DUPR 4.2 and below" mean? Does it apply to both players?+
Yes, it applies to each player. Both players' own ratings must be 4.2 or lower; it isn't an average of the team. Players without a rating yet can also play.
For example, a 4.0 player and a 3.6 player can enter together, but a 4.4 player can't, even with a lower-rated partner.
Which rating counts: singles or doubles?+
Your doubles rating, because Season 2 is a doubles tournament.
Is there an age limit?+
No. Season 2 is open to all ages.
Can beginners play?+
Yes. Players without a DUPR rating can play, and anyone rated 4.2 or below can enter. Matches are competitive, so it helps to know the basic rules and scoring before you come.
Format and rules
What is the tournament format?+
Open doubles for up to 48 teams on Saturday 6 December, 5–10 pm, at Andheri Sports Complex.
- Group stage: teams play in groups, one game per match, first to 11 points.
- Knockouts: the best teams from each group go through, one game per match, first to 21 points.
The groups and schedule are shared before the event.
How are games scored?+
With rally scoring: a point is won on every rally, whichever team is serving.
- Group stage: first team to 11 points wins.
- Knockouts: first team to 21 points wins.
Serving follows normal pickleball rules: underhand, diagonal, and the serve must land beyond the kitchen.
Who makes line calls? Are there referees?+
There's a referee for every match. The referee makes the calls, and their decision is final.
On the day
Can friends and family come to watch?+
Yes. Friends and family are welcome to come and watch at Andheri Sports Complex.
Prizes and results
Where can I see the results, and when do they show on DUPR?+
Results are posted on the tournament page after the event. Because Season 2 is DUPR-rated, we upload every match score to DUPR after the tournament, and your rating updates once DUPR has processed them.
