Playing Groups
The individual members of the playing groups are no longer being listed on this website. You can see your assigned group, and the members in your playing group on the Pickleheads application by logging into the application and clicking on "My Groups" under your name and profile. (Example below)
Group Captains
Each playing group has volunteer Captains (also called Admins) who are responsible for organizing and communicating with the players in their group. Captains should share their contact information with their group members. Below is a list of Captains in each group.
Player Movement
There are 2 options available for player movement
​1. Player Movement Mechanism Through Play
-
Inform your group captain of the desire to move.
-
Use the Player Movement Worksheet (below) and track 6 sessions of 7 games. 42 games in total.
-
Based on points - not wins and losses - a player must have an 80% score/point success rate to move up.
The onus will be on the applicant to track all scores on the Player Movement Worksheet (below), and have at least one opponent sign each game score AND the captain sign each day of play. Once all six sessions have been completed, the applicant is to forward their results to the club at Lakecountrypickleheads@gmail.com
After the move to the next group is achieved a 65% score/point success rate must be achieved over 42 games to remain in that higher group.​
OR
2. Player Movement Mechanism Through DUPR
-
Increase your DUPR rating to the next level. This may be achieved by playing tournaments or self-organized DUPR play.
