VRPA Release
The 2026 VRPA Macdonald Realty Classic is coming up—and yes it will be just as EPIC as last year (arguably more… but we’ll let you be the judge)!
This year’s three-day showdown will take place Friday, June 12 – Sunday, June 14, 2026
Tournament Format Updates
Expect the same great tournament with a few upgrades:
∙ Most medal rounds will now be best 2 out of 3 Matches, (because one game just isn’t always enough)
∙ Most games will include at least one timeout
∙ In line with Pickleball Canada standards, senior categories are now 50+
Note: Event times and formats are subject to change based on registration.

Plot Twist Incoming…
VRPA members get early registration access
Yes, you read that right. Details will be emailed to Members Only a few days before registration opens—so keep an eye on your inbox (and maybe check your spam folder just in case).
Reminder of the VRPA DUPR Policy:anyone with multiple DUPR accounts will not be permitted to play in any VRPA tournaments. If you are accidently one of these people, now is the time to contact DUPR and have your accounts merged. If you need help with this, please email [email protected]; we are happy to assist.
Volunteers
This event doesn’t run on good vibes alone (although there are plenty of those). We’ll be looking for our amazing volunteers soon—stay tuned if you want to be part of the behind-the-scenes magic.
Please forward any questions to [email protected]
Paddles Up,
Krista Josselyn & the VRPA Tournament Team
