Pickleball Ireland are excited to announce our first national league competition will take place on 26-February and 5-March-2023 in UCD Sports Centre, Belfield, Dublin 4.
League Format
​
-
Each team in the league will consist of four players (two men and two women). From this team, players will play across Mixed Doulbes, Men's Doubles and Women's Doubles events.
-
The four players can represent a Pickleball Club (one team per club) or enter as a group of individuals. All players must be registered members of Pickleball Ireland to play.

Teams can nominate a number of substitute players should a player not be able to play a match.
-
Matches consist of four games up to 21 points. Each point scored in a game will represent a point for your team in the league. The points across all the games you play will be totaled to give your team's league score.

Teams can enter at one of the following three different grades:
-
Level I (2.0 and below)​
-
Level II (2.1 to 3.4 inclusive)
