The Mile High Gold Cup @ APEX

From 2100 players in 2022 to nearly 10,000 participants in 2023, the Amateur Pickleball Association has become one of the largest tours focused on the amateur player from 2.5-5.0.  The Mile High Gold Cup will take place at APEX once again.  This event is open to all players from 2.5-5.0 with events broken down by skill level first and then age division dependent on the total number of teams/players registered within each skill level of play.  All teams/players will compete in a minimum of 5 games during each event with some divisions playing as many as 10-12 games based on the event format and number of teams in attendance.  Sign up for this tournament now to save your spot!

Registration Rates – Early Bird $75 for first event, $45 for second event, $25 for third event available until August 26th.  $10 increase on each event at that time.

Schedule – formatting will typically have Doubles (8am+) on Saturday, Mixed Doubles (8am+) on Sunday, with Singles taking place on one of the two days dictated by attendance but we do expect Singles matches to take place on Saturday afternoon/early evening.  The schedule may be modified by the director prior to the start of the event if deemed necessary.

Format – there is a 5 game guarantee in place; single game round-robin matches played to 11, win by 2, for doubles; consolation brackets/games will maintain this format while the Gold/Silver/Bronze medal bracket finals transitions to a best 2 of 3 set.  Singles will include rally scoring to 21, win by 2, during all games.
