And finally, here are Sunday’s matchups in the order in which they will be played:
#4 Matchup: Miami Pickleball Club (A) v. Chicago Slice (B)
NOTE: If Chicago wins this match, they will advance to the playoffs. If they lose, the California Black Bears will advance over them. Both teams would finish with 31 points, but California would advance because they would have a higher match win percentage (42% for CAL v. 37% for CHI).
