REFEREE & RULES SUMMARY
PLAYER INSTRUCTIONS

Please carefully read this important information in its entirety.
All 2025 USA Pickleball Rules Apply. Players are responsible for being familiar with the rules in their entirety.

Players must play with a USA Pickleball-approved paddle. You are responsible for ensuring that the paddle you play with is listed on the Approved Paddle List posted on the USA Pickleball website.

Players are responsible for calling all the lines on their end of the court. In officiated matches the referee is responsible for calling service foot faults, non-volley zone foot faults, and short serves. Please make all “out” calls loudly, clearly, and promptly, even if they are obvious. The Code of Ethics for Line Calling requires that you give the opponent the benefit of any doubt.

You may ask the referee to make a ruling on any line call (appeal). The referee will only make a ruling if he/she clearly saw the ball land, otherwise, the appealed call will stand.

Starting server bands will be provided for doubles events and must be worn by each starting server so that it is visible to the referee and the opponents. Failure to wear the band will result in a forfeit of the match.

Server must not hit the ball to serve until after the entire score has been called. Serving while the score is being called (live ball) will result in a fault. Serving before the score call begins (dead ball) will result in a replay.

After the score is called, the server has 10 seconds to serve the ball. Failure to do so will result in a fault.

In officiated matches, the referee will pay close attention that each player’s service complies with USA Pickleball requirements. The ball release must also be visible to the referee and the opponent.
For a volley serve, when the ball is hit:

a. The server’s arm must be moving in an upward arc.
b. The highest point of the paddle head must not be above the highest point of the server’s wrist.
c. The ball at contact must not be above the server’s waist.

For a drop serve, the ball must be dropped from the hand or paddle, with no force added and can not be tossed up.

Any double hit can be hit twice, but this must occur during a continuous, single-direction stroke.

Players may quickly hydrate and towel off between rallies within the flow of the game.

Players may call a hinder if they are distracted by a ball, person, or object coming into their playing area. Hinders deemed to be valid by the referee will result in a replay. The referee will not stop play due to a ball in the playing area unless it becomes a safety issue.

Players may only receive coaching from someone other than their partner during a time-out. This includes between games and during end changes.

Any player may call a time-out before the server hits the ball to serve. Each team has two 1-minute (standard) time-outs per 11-point or 15-point game and three time-outs are available in games to 21 points. Time-outs cannot be called during rallies. Time-outs for a game may be requested and used during the between game time-out before the game begins.

There is a 2-minute break (time-out) between games.

In the third game of a 2-out-of-3 game match, and in games to 15 or 21 points, teams
have a 1-minute time-out to change ends of the court (at 6, 8, or 11 points, respectively).

Each player may request one medical time-out per match to address injuries and medical conditions. When a player requests a medical time-out, medical personnel (or the Tournament Director) will be summoned to assess whether the need is valid. If the request is deemed not valid, the requesting player will be charged a standard time-out (if available) and issued a technical warning. If the player has no remaining time-outs, a technical foul will be issued (resulting in a 1-point score adjustment).

In accordance with the USA Pickleball Concussion Protocol, any player sustaining a head injury will not be permitted to resume play without a written release from a licensed health care professional.

Players requesting to see the Head Referee or Tournament Director to challenge a referee’s ruling will be charged a standard time-out and be issued a technical warning if the referee’s ruling is correct. If no time-out is available, a technical foul will be issued (resulting in a 1-point score adjustment).

When 15 seconds remain before starting or resuming play, the referee will give a 15 second warning. The referee will call “time in” and the score when the players are, or should be, ready.

In self-officiated matches, any player may request a referee if the player believes that a rule is being consistently violated or when players are not able to resolve a dispute quickly and easily.

Players are expected to exhibit good sportsmanship at all times. Any action deemed by the referee to be unsportsmanlike will result in a verbal warning, technical warning, or a technical foul against the offending player. A game will be forfeited if the player or team receives a technical warning and a technical foul, or three technical warnings, during a match. The match will be forfeited if the equivalent of four technical warnings is obtained.

***********************************************************************

PRE-MATCH BRIEFING with REFEREES

Before play begins for each match the referee will hold a briefing with all players to:

Inspect player paddles.

Inform players of the match format.

Identify starting servers and ensure visibility of the starting server identification.

Use a fair method for players to choose service and ends to start the match.

Remind players to make loud, clear, and prompt calls. (Line calling responsibilities
covered in #2 and #3 above so they are not required to be covered in the briefing.)

Notify players of any court abnormalities and approved rule modifications.

Review major rule changes for 2025.

Answer questions about player instructions and rules.

Allow players to warm up as time permits. Five minutes for first match of the day, 3 minutes for all remaining matches.

2025 NH Senior Games Pickleball Tournament
2025-08-08 - 2025-08-12 | Pinkerton Academy, 5 Pinkerton Street, Derry, NH, 03038, United States
Tournament Description

Welcome to the 20254 New Hampshire Senior Games Pickleball Tournament!

This is a USA Pickleball Sanctioned Tournament. That means that all players must be active members of USA Pickleball, the National Governing Organization for Pickleball in the United States. It also means that all results will be reported both to USA Pickleball and the National Senior Games Association. Some matches, but not all, will be refereed. All referees are USA Pickleball officials. The head referee is Joseph L. Santoro who is a USA Pickleball Certified Referee.

This year’s event takes place on the beautiful campus of Pinkerton Academy in Derry, New Hampshire, where there could be as many as 24 courts. Registration is limited to the first 350 players to fully pay the registration fee.

The dates and events are:

Friday, August 09: Men’s Singles
Women’s Singles
Men’s Mini-Singles
Women’s Mini-Singles

Saturday, August 10: Women’s Doubles
Men’s Doubles

Sunday, August 11: Mixed Doubles

Format

All games will be Round Robin. Based upon the bracket size, the games will be 1-15 points, winning by 2, or 1-11 points, winning by 2. In a Round Robin format, each team plays every other team in that bracket at least once. For example, in a bracket with eight teams, each team will play seven games.

All brackets are limited to a minimum of three teams and a maximum of eight teams which will play as follows:

— Brackets with 3 or 4 teams will play a double Round Robin to 15 points.
— Brackets with 5 teams will play a single Round Robin to 15 points.
— Brackets with 6, 7, or 8 teams will play a single Round Robin to 11 points.

All brackets are formed first by Skill Level, such as 2.5, 3.0, etc., and then by Age in five year increments, such as 50-54, 55-59, etc.

The Year 2026 is a “qualifying year” for the 2027 Senior Games. In 2026 medals will be awarded on a comprehensive bracket basis; those who qualify to participate in the 2027 games will also be recognized.

Example

Assume a Skill Level X.X bracket is composed of three age five year age groups with
two teams each:

Age Group 50-54 Two Teams
Age Group 55-59 Two Teams
Age Group 60-64 Two Teams

Teams A & B play in the Age 60-64 Age Group earning Gold & Silver Medals respectively.
Team C plays in the Age 50-54 Age Group and earns the Bronze Medal.

However, since the top four teams in each five-year age group qualify to play in the
National Senior Games, all six teams meet the qualifying test. While only the winners
of the “comprehensive bracket” in the above example will receive physical medals,
all players who qualify for the 2025 Nationals based upon their five year age group
will receive written notice to that effect.

The Tournament Director reserves the right to merge brackets when there is an insufficient number of players within a bracket to make for meaningful play. The Tournament Director also reserves the right to change the format should circumstances, such as adverse weather conditions, necessitate expediency.

Other Notes:
1. The registration fee includes a souvenir tournament tee-shirt.
2. Individual events (such as mixed doubles) can be added to the registration for a separate fee.
3. This is an out-door tournament with no back-up dates. Thus, each registrant assumes
the risk that adverse weather could create scheduling delays, abbreviated play, or
event cancelation.
4. There is a no-refund policy. However, any request to withdraw received by July 14, 2025,
entitles the player to a refund not to exceed $ 45.00.

Additional Information

The Pinkerton Academy campus is a short drive from Interstate 93, and is convenient to many hotels, motels, and restaurants.

Players are responsible for providing their own chairs, refreshments, and medical supplies.

Note: this is a USA Pickleball sanctioned tournament. Within ten days of the tournament’s
completion, player scores will be sent to USA Pickleball for adjustments to player ratings.
However, the scores will not be sent to any other organization.

This tournament is an outdoor event with a no-refund policy.
Each player assumes the risk that inclement weather may force tournament cancellation.

The New England Pickleball Association is conducting the New England Pickleball Championships on October 9th through the 12th at four different indoor facilities in New England. All four facilities are within 45 minutes of each other. The NEPA is still looking to become a Golden Ticket Event for 2026 Nationals and is looking for USA Pickleball to sanction our tournament. We are using the same age and skill level criteria by USA Pickleball needed for a Golden Ticket Event. Below you will find our age/skill breakdown for the tournament. We are looking to have cash prizes just for our four open divisions. The cash prize level has yet to be determined. Please feel free top reach out to me with any questions or concerns.
