If you’ve been to Picklers Park on a Saturday, you’ve likely heard the sound of paddles smacking balls and the cheers of players leveling up their game. That’s DUPR Day in action — but it’s not just any pickleball session. It’s one of the most organized, skill-driven, and community-focused events you’ll find in South Africa’s growing pickleball scene.
At its core, DUPR Day is powered by the Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating (DUPR) — a global rating system that allows players to compete based on skill, not guesswork. Whether you're a 3.5 finding your groove or a 4.5 bringing power and finesse, everyone plays where they truly belong. That means:
Games are fast-paced, skill-based, and incredibly rewarding. Every shot counts, and every player walks off the court a little better than when they started.
DUPR Days at Picklers Park go beyond the scoreboard. Sure, the matches are exciting and skill-based — but what truly makes it special is the people, the laughter, and the shared moments on and off the court.
It’s where you’ll find:
🍔 Food and fun between games — Grab a bite, share a laugh, and cheer on your friends.
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Families bonding over friendly competition — Kids, parents, even grandparents get in on the action.
🤝 Colleagues turning teammates — Teams are made, rivalries are born, and stories are shared.
🎉 A vibe you don’t want to miss — Music, movement, and a community that welcomes everyone, whether you're a beginner or a seasoned player.
It’s not just a tournament. It’s a vibe. A place where competition meets community, and everyone belongs.

Come play with purpose. You’ll walk away with more than just a better rating — you’ll walk away part of a bigger story.
