  • Formerly known as “Open Play for DUPR”, these sessions now called Round Robin 2.5 & Below for DUPR give players who do not have a DUPR the chance to obtain their initial rating. Unrated players must create a DUPR account and connect it to their BPC account in order to sign up. Click this link to create a DUPR account.

    In this session, you will play in a round robin against other players who are not rated. Your scores will be recorded. Once you obtain your initial rating it opens the door for you to join in many more of our programs.

    You can also attend one of the Norwell My DUPR Coach Rating Sessions to get your initial rating. The coach leading the session will evaluate players on a number of specific skills and assign a DUPR.

  • No partner, no problem! Open Play is designed for members of similar skill sets to come together on the court for some fun. No pro assigned. Scores are not recorded.

  • These ladder league options are for regular competitive play where DUPR scores are recorded for all matches. In our ladder leagues, the season is 8 weeks long, but you can choose to play in as many or as little weeks as you wish. Both league options below will be split into multiple divisions based on skill and gender.

    • Individual Ladder Leagues

      • Each week you will be grouped with 3-4 other players based on where you are in the standings, and you will play a game with each of them as your partner. As you win or lose, you go up or down the rankings, aka moving up or down the ladder.
