Getting to 3.5: Transition Zone Strategies (11/03/2026)

Tue, 03 Nov 2026 14:00:00 GMT

Intermediate clinic, $30

Coach: TBD

Location: Truxtun Park. 1229 Primrose Rd, Annapolis, MD 21403

Mastering the transition zone requires excellent reflexes, coordination and strategy. This clinic will cover a range of topics, including footwork, shot selection and court positioning. In the transition zone, players have a limited amount of time to react to the ball and choose the right shot. Through intense drills and game-like scenarios, we will focus on understanding how and when to reset or counterattack and the importance of knowing when to move forward or backward, and how to cover the court effectively.

APC/Bay Capital Mortgage Club Cup (05/21/2027)

Fri, 21 May 2027 12:00:00 GMT

SAVE THE DATES

MAY 21-23, 2027!

THE 2027 APC / BAY CAPITAL MORTGAGE CLUB CUP IS COMING!

May 21–23, 2027 | Annapolis, Maryland

Get ready for a brand-new pickleball experience from the Annapolis Pickleball Club!

The 2027 Annapolis Pickleball Club / Bay Capital Mortgage Club Cup Pickleball Tournament will bring together players from clubs throughout the Mid-Atlantic for three days of fun, friendship, club pride and competitive pickleball!

This isn’t just another tournament. You’ll be representing YOUR pickleball club!

Gather your teammates, rally your club members and get ready to compete against players from other clubs in a spirited battle for Club Cup bragging rights!

THREE DAYS. THREE WAYS TO COMPETE.

FRIDAY, MAY 21 — ROUND ROBIN PLAY

Individual play in a round robin format.

The Round Robin format is an individual competition where each player partners with 3 other players on their court. Games are organized according to skill level and are gender specific, not mixed. Players earn individual points for each game. More details about the Round Robin format will be available soon. But this will surely be a fun and competitive format.

Friday establishes the first Club Cup standings. Bring your best individual game and represent your club on the court.

SATURDAY, MAY 22 — GENDER DOUBLES
Grab your partner and get ready for some serious doubles competition. Players compete with a partner who belongs to the same club.

Each medal-winning doubles team earns Club Cup points for their club!

SUNDAY, MAY 23 — MIXED DOUBLES
Finish the weekend with mixed doubles action and one more chance to help your club climb the leaderboard! Players compete with a mixed doubles partner from their same club. The final medals of the tournament determine the final Club Cup points.

PLAY YOUR GAME. REPRESENT YOUR CLUB.

Players will compete in traditional skill and age divisions, facing opponents at a similar skill level.

And here’s some great news:

NO DUPR IMPACT!

The Club Cup will be a non-DUPR-rated tournament, so your DUPR rating will NOT be affected by your results.

You will need a DUPR account when registering so your skill level can be confirmed, but you can compete with confidence knowing that your tournament results won’t change your DUPR score.

CLUB PRIDE. COMPETITIVE PLAY. LOTS OF FUN.

Whether you’re a seasoned tournament player or love the thrill of competitive pickleball, the Club Cup is designed to be fun, friendly and competitive—with plenty of opportunities to meet players from clubs throughout the Mid-Atlantic.

Bring your game.
Bring your friends.
Bring your club pride.
And get ready to play for the Cup!

More information—including registration details, divisions, rules and club participation information—will be coming soon, so stay tuned for further announcements!

But for now…

MARK YOUR CALENDAR!
