In a new structure for 2024, the 24 MLP teams will play a regular season schedule and be split into six divisions of four teams each. D.C Pickleball Team will be in the Northeast Division with the Brooklyn Aces, New York Hustlers and New Jersey 5's.
Teams will play at least 40 matches over the course of the regular season, facing every other team at least once. Division opponents will meet three or four times and teams will play everyone in their “rival” division two or three times.
There will be a Mid-Season Championship Tournament with all 24 teams in action over four days (Thursday, July 11-Sunday, July 14), in Grand Rapids, Mich., with a champion crowned at the end of the weekend.
The 2024 season will conclude with the MLP Playoffs that will take place over two four-day weekends in two locations and will take into account teams’ performance across the regular season, culminating with a full-season 2024 champion.
