The YMCA of the Northwoods and Rhinelander Pickleball will host a pickleball tournament on Saturday, Sept. 18 at Pioneer Park in Rhinelander. Participants are to register with a partner and will play a round-robin format based on their USAPA ratings, organizers said in a press release.

There are seven brackets this year: intermediate women, intermediate men, intermediate mixed, advanced women, advanced men, advanced mixed and skinny singles. Intermediates should have a 3.5 USAPA rating or lower and advanced 4.0 plus. Teams will be given a starting time based on the number of teams entered. Teams are guaranteed five games and USAPA rules will apply throughout the tournament.

Registration is open to the first 36 teams and must be made by Wednesday, September 8.

"In addition there will be a competition for beginners who have not participated in competititve play," the release states. "Beginners do not need to come with a partner."

"This year playing on the newly renovated courts at Pioneer Park will be both fun and challenging," said Marilyn Duschl, tournament director.

Food from CT's Deli Food Truck, A'la Mode Ice Cream and Coffee Shop, and Holiday Gas coffee and snacks will be available for purchase. The fee per player is $30 and $10 for entering an additional bracket. Prizes will be awarded to the top three teams in each bracket.

Proceeds from this tournament support the Y Annual Support Campaign which provides assistance for youth, adults and families to attend YMCA programs and activities.

Registration forms and additional information are available online at www.ymcaofthenorthwoods.org or by calling 715-362-9622.
