      <title>SAPC Fall Match Up Clash (2026-09-12)</title>
      <description>&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;Pick your team and join the fun at this SAPC fall windup event.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Overview&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;
  &lt;li&gt;No DUPR = More FUN&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Format: Team play. Minimum 2 men and 2 women; optional two spares - 1 male and 1 female.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Schedule: Morning round-robin for seeding, followed by single elimination afternoon playoffs.&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Matchups: Each round consists of 4 matches: Men's Doubles (MD), Women's Doubles (LD), Mixed Doubles 1 (MX1), and Mixed Doubles 2 (MX2)&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;Guaranteed Play: Every team gets a minimum of 10 games!&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;div&gt;
  &lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Divisions and Rating Caps&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;To keep games competitive and fun, combined club rating caps apply to active players in each match:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;ul style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Amateur Division&lt;/span&gt;:&amp;nbsp;Combined club rating cap of&amp;nbsp;5.5&amp;nbsp;(e.g., a 2.5 player + 3.0 player). Non-rated members are assigned a 2.5 rating to encourage new player participation!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Intermediate Division&lt;/span&gt;:&amp;nbsp;Combined club rating cap of&amp;nbsp;7.5.&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Pro Division&lt;/span&gt;:&amp;nbsp;Unrestricted.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;

  &lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Team Spirit &amp;amp; Fun&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;ul style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Bring Guest Players&lt;/span&gt;:&amp;nbsp;Non-SAPC members can join your team as long as they hold an active Pickleball Canada membership.&amp;nbsp;(Captains must verify home club ratings and have their guests sign liability waivers at check-in).&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;span class="Apple-style-span"&gt;Get Creative&lt;/span&gt;:&amp;nbsp;Pick a clever team name and coordinate your outfits!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Prizes and Awards&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;ul&gt;
    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Cool Trophies for Division Winners&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Best Coordinated Team Outfits&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Best Display of Sportsmanship&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Fastest &amp;amp; Slowest Game Play (Round Robin)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

    &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;...and much, much more!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
  &lt;/ul&gt;

  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Raffle&lt;/strong&gt;&amp;nbsp;Missed out on our last raffle? We’re raffling off top-tier Selkirk paddles (including the Boomstick) and other great gear!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

  &lt;p style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Registration &amp;amp; Details&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
  &lt;li style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Team Fee: $100 per team paid by the team captain (Works out to just $25/player for a 4-person team, or $16.67/player for a 6-person team!)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Date: Saturday Sep 12 (Rain date Sunday Sep 13)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Registration Deadline: Friday Sep 4&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Availability: Spots are limited--sign up early to secure your team's spot!&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;Team Captain:&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li style="list-style: none; display: inline;"&gt;
    &lt;ul style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;
      &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;selects the level of play being entered (Amateur/Intermediate/Pro)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

      &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;enters their team name&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

      &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;provides the full names of their team of 4 or 6 players&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

      &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;identifies which of their team are members of SAPC&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

      &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;enters each player rating (SAPC rating, 2.5 for unrated SAPC members, or highest club level or other attained level for guest players)&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
    &lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 14px;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Once you have all the above information, the Captain can register her/his team by selecting the Register button (in the email invitation or below) or by clicking on the event in our Tournaments calendar.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/li&gt;

  &lt;li style="list-style: none; display: inline"&gt;
    &lt;ul style="font-size: 18px;"&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
  &lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
