Pre Season FAQs
Pre Season PIL FAQs
Are scores submitted to DUPR?
No, the PIL is not affiliated with DUPR. This is a self-rated league today.
How much does each player pay to play?
Each player pays $8 to PIL for the season pass, and their portion of their team fee to their home club.
I filled out that form - do I need to do anything else to be registered?
Yes, that form was a pre-registration to gauge interest. This is our inaugural season. Formal registration will happen inside the portal after schedules are released to club administrators.
I committed to a team - how do I pay my part of the registration fee?
You'll pay your part of the team fee to your club directly. The registration fee will happen directly once the portal is live in early February.
How many games a week and which days will my team play?
This is a 3-month team tournament. Teams will play 10-matches over 12-weeks. All clubs gave their preferred times for home matches, and teams will play on those selected days. Some teams may play twice in a week and some may have a bye week over the 3-month term.
I didn't get notified as to which team I'm on - who do I contact?
Contact your club admin. Also, once captains are officially assigned by club admins, captains may be reaching out to players for team assignments.
If I filled out the interested form in December will I automatically get to play in the league?
Team participation is directly up to the club admin and captains of each team. PIL welcomes each and every player that honors our code of conduct.
What is the minimum number of players on the team and max?
Typically, teams can expect between 5-12 players, but exceptions may occur.
When will schedules be released?
Schedules will be delivered early the week of Jan 25, 2026.
They will be shared first with:
• Club admins
• Team captains
Captains will then distribute match details to their players.
Will clubs be briefed before players?
Yes. There will be a Club Admin Zoom Call the week of Jan 25th to:
• Review schedules
• Confirm court times
• Walk through match-day flow
• Address logistics and operations
This ensures each club is fully aligned before matches begin.
When will captains receive training?
There will be a Captain Zoom Call at the end of the week of Jan 25th. This session will cover:
• Team responsibilities
• Match-day procedures
• Lineups, scoring, and reporting
• Communication standards
• What tools and support will be available this season
When will the league portal be ready?
The league portal will be live by February 3. This is where players and captains will:
• View schedules
• Access match info
• See standings
• Submit scores
• Receive league updates
When do players register and pay?
Registration opens February 3 and closes February 9. During this window, players will:
• Confirm their roster spot
• Complete required waivers
• Pay the $8 PIL Season Pass
When do matches begin?
Week 1 matches begin February 9.
The season officially starts with your first club-vs-club battle.
What if I don’t register before Feb 9?
No stress — only players who will be playing in matches need to register before February 9.
However, only registered players can have their scores count in league standings.
Registering early also helps your captain:
• Build stronger lineups
• Make smarter matchups
• Adjust strategy week to week
The sooner you’re in, the more options your team has when rivalry time hits.
