This is a session for high intermediate/advanced players with OFFICIAL Doubles DUPR rating 3.5 + only.

DUPR scoring games are NOT played in this session unless people choose to organise them themselves.

To join this session, you must have an OFFICIAL DOUBLES DUPR rating of 3.5 or above.

The organisers of this event have the right to remove any person who does not meet the criteria from the booking. Your money will be completely refunded if removed from the session

As we only play doubles in this session, a doubles DUPR only is taken in account & accepted - doubles requires a person to be able to play with another person and communicate for teamwork.

If you are keen to join this session but do not yet meet the criteria, please enter into some DUPR sessions and/or competitions to build your rating to a minimum of 3.5 DUPR.
Using the official DUPR rating system as our eligibility criteria enables an objective means to keep the standard high in this session for the enjoyment of advanced players.

Players who have previously attended the session when their DUPR was over 3.5, but at the time of registering for the session have had their DUPR drop to 3.3- 3.5 will have a 6-month grace period to work on increasing their DUPR back to the session requirements. If this applies to you, please speak to the organisers of the session.
