Pickleball TopCo LLC Terms of Use
Last updated: [October 5, 2022]
These Terms of Use are entered into by and between (1) Pickleball TopCo LLC and its affiliated companies (together, the “Company”, “we”, or “us”) and (2) You, the individual using the Sites or the Services (as applicable, “You”, “Your” or “Yourself”). If You use the Sites or the Services on behalf of any corporation, company or other organization that You represent, such as a company that You own or that employs You (an “Organization”), then “You” also includes such Organization.
THESE TERMS OF USE CONTAIN A DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION PROVISION, INCLUDING WAIVER OF JURY TRIALS AND CLASS ACTIONS THAT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE AND WITH RESPECT TO DISPUTES YOU MAY HAVE WITH US. YOU MAY OPT OUT OF THE BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER AS PROVIDED BELOW.
The following terms and conditions, together with any documents they expressly incorporate by reference (collectively, “Terms of Use”), govern Your access to and use of pickleball.com and its affiliated sites, including any content, functionality, and services offered on or through pickleball.com and its affiliated sites (collectively, the “Sites”), whether as a guest or a registered user. Through the Sites, You may be permitted to purchase and receive from us various services (collectively, the “Services”), which may include without limitation our sales and provision of pickleball-related goods, content, subscriptions and other offerings (collectively, the “Products”), and our hosting, management and support of pickleball-related brackets, tournaments and events. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if You have entered into a separately-negotiated and signed agreement with us, then that agreement applies rather than these Terms of Use as to the portions of the Sites or the Services to which that agreement relates.
Please read the Terms of Use carefully before You start to use the Sites or before interacting with us and our Services in any way. By using the Sites or by clicking to accept or agree to the Terms of Use when this option is made available to You, You accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy, found at https://www.topcourt.com/privacy, incorporated herein by reference. If You do not want to agree to these Terms of Use or the Privacy Policy, You must not access or use the Sites.
The Sites are offered and available to users who are 13 years of age or older. By using the Sites, You represent and warrant that You are of legal age to form a binding contract with the Company and meet all of the foregoing eligibility requirements. Additionally, if You use the Sites or the Services on behalf of any Organization, then You represent and warrant that You have all necessary authority and capacity to enter into these Terms of Use on behalf of Your Organization. If You do not meet all of these requirements, You must not access or use the Sites.
The Company and Services
The Sites and the Services are made available by Pickleball TopCo LLC and its group of affiliated companies, consisting of the following legal entities:
- Pickleball OpCo LLC
- Pickleball Brackets OpCo LLC
- Pickleball Holdings LLC
- Pickleball TopCourt LLC
In the event that additional legal entities are created or added to the group of affiliated companies in the future, these Terms of Use will also apply to such additional legal entities unless otherwise stated, and these Terms of Use will be updated accordingly.
As used in these Terms of Use, the terms “we”, “us” or “our” refer to the entity or entities described above, as applicable in the context of the particular Product or Service being provided or the applicable processing operations being performed. The Service-Specific Terms Addendum included at the end of these Terms of Use (the “Service-Specific Terms”) contains additional terms applicable to specific portions of the Services, as more fully set forth therein and incorporated into these Terms of Use. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, You acknowledge and agree that (1) where specified in the Service-Specific Terms, specific portions of the Services are offered solely by the particular legal entity specified therein, and (2) the other entities comprising the Company group shall not be responsible or liable to You or any third party with regards to anything relating to those portions of the Services.
Subject to Your compliance with these Terms of Use, the Company grants You a limited, personal, non-exclusive license to access and use the Sites and the Services to which You have been granted access in accordance with the Services offerings that You have purchased hereunder.
Changes to the Terms of Use
We may revise and update these Terms of Use from time to time in our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them, and apply to all access to and use of the Sites and the Services thereafter. However, any changes to the dispute resolution provisions set out in “Governing Law and Jurisdiction” will not apply to any disputes for which the parties have actual notice on or before the date the change is posted on the Sites.
Your continued use of the Sites and the Services following the posting of revised Terms of Use means that You accept and agree to the changes. You are expected to check this page from time to time so You are aware of any changes, as they are binding on You.
Your Account
To make use of many of the Services on the Sites, You will need to create a Site account for Yourself (an “Account”). If You have previously created a user account with one of the Sites or Services that we operate or acquire, we may convert it to an Account that You can use across the Sites and Services. You may only create an Account for Yourself through the interface provided by the Company. You may not create Accounts for others or use an automated process to create Accounts. You may not create an Account if You are under the age of 13. You may not share Your Account with others; each individual person who uses the Sites or the Services must create their own Account. You are responsible for ensuring the security of Your user login credentials, including the use of secure passwords. You will promptly notify the Company if You become aware of any actual or likely misuse of Your Account. You acknowledge and consent to the Company using and sharing Your information to prevent fraud. Some of the information requested during registration of Your Account is mandatory and You must provide this information in order to create an Account; other information is optional and You may choose whether to provide it. Creation of an Account may be subject to requests for more information, review and/or approval by the Company in its sole discretion. In order to provide an integrated collection of Sites and related Services, Your Account may be used across the Sites and may incorporate information received through Your use of the different Services. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain of the Sites and Services may from time to time require You to create or use an account specific to that particular Site or Service, and each such account shall be considered an “Account” for purposes of these Terms of Use.
You represent and warrant that all information You provide to us in connection with Your Account and Your use of the Sites and Services shall be true, complete, accurate and not misleading. We have the right to disable any Account, user name, password, or other identifier, whether chosen by You or provided by us, at any time in our sole discretion for any or no reason, including if, in our opinion, You have violated any provision of these Terms of Use, or if we have any question about Your authority to represent an organization for management of an Account in its name.

If for any reason a dispute proceeds in court notwithstanding the mandatory arbitration provisions set forth below, then any such legal suit, action, or proceeding arising out of, or related to, these Terms of Use or the Sites or Services shall be instituted exclusively in the federal courts of the United States or the courts of the State of Delaware, in each case located in the City of Wilmington, Delaware.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND ARBITRATION; CLASS ACTION WAIVER.
Please Read This Provision Carefully. It Affects Your Legal Rights.
This Dispute Resolution and Arbitration; Class Action Waiver provision (this “Provision”) facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any dispute (e.g., claim or controversy, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort (including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence) or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below) that may arise between You and us. Effectively, then, “dispute” is given the broadest meaning enforceable by law and includes any claims against other parties relating to the Sites, Services or Products provided or billed to You (such as our licensors, suppliers, dealers or third-party vendors) whenever You also assert claims against us in the same proceeding.
This Provision provides that all disputes between You and us shall be resolved by binding arbitration. To be clear, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney’s fees). You may, however, opt-out of this Provision which means You would have a right or opportunity to bring claims in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate in or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including, but not limited to, class actions). BOTH YOU AND WE AGREE THAT, EXCEPT AS PROVIDED BELOW, ANY AND ALL DISPUTES, AS DEFINED ABOVE, WHETHER PRESENTLY IN EXISTENCE OR BASED ON ACTS OR OMISSIONS IN THE PAST OR IN THE FUTURE, WILL BE RESOLVED EXCLUSIVELY AND FINALLY BY BINDING ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT IN ACCORDANCE WITH THIS PROVISION.
Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution: For all disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, You must first give us an opportunity to resolve the dispute which is first done by emailing us at [email protected] the following information: (1) Your name, (2) Your address, (3) a written description of Your claim, and (4) a description of the specific relief You seek. If we do not resolve the dispute within 45 days after receiving Your notification, then You may pursue Your dispute in arbitration. You may pursue Your dispute in a court only under the circumstances described below.
Exclusions from Arbitration/Right to Opt Out: Notwithstanding the above, You or we may choose to pursue a dispute in court and not by arbitration if: (a) the dispute qualifies for initiation in small claims court; or (b) YOU OPT-OUT OF THESE ARBITRATION PROCEDURES WITHIN 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE THAT YOU FIRST CONSENT TO THIS AGREEMENT (the “Opt-Out Deadline”). You may opt-out of this Provision by emailing us at [email protected] the following information: (1) Your name; (2) Your address; and (3) a clear statement that You do not wish to resolve disputes with us through arbitration. Either way, we will not take any decision You make personally. In fact, we promise that your decision to opt-out of this Provision will have no adverse effect on Your relationship with us. Any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and You must pursue Your dispute in arbitration or small claims court. Additionally, either we or You may seek emergency injunctive relief from a court for any claims relating to infringement of intellectual property rights.
Arbitration Procedures: If this Provision applies and the dispute is not resolved as provided above (Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution) either You or we may initiate arbitration proceedings. The American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org, or JAMS, www.jamsadr.com, will arbitrate all disputes, and the arbitration will be conducted before a single arbitrator. The arbitration shall be commenced as an individual arbitration, and shall in no event be commenced as a class arbitration. All issues shall be for the arbitrator to decide, including the scope of this Provision.
For arbitration before AAA, for Disputes of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes will apply; for Disputes involving $75,000 or more, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules will apply. In either instance, the AAA’s Optional Rules For Emergency Measures Of Protection shall apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. For arbitration before JAMS, the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures and the JAMS Recommended Arbitration Discovery Protocols For Domestic, Commercial Cases will apply. The JAMS rules are available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling 1-800-352-5267. This Provision governs in the event it conflicts with the applicable arbitration rules. Under no circumstances will class action procedures or rules apply to the arbitration.
Because the Platform and these Terms concern interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all disputes. However, the arbitrator will apply applicable substantive law consistent with the FAA and the applicable statute of limitations or condition precedent to suit.
Arbitration Award: The arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief that would be available pursuant to applicable law, and will not have the power to award relief to, against or for the benefit of any person who is not a party to the proceeding. The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. Such award will be final and binding on the parties, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.
Location of Arbitration: The place of arbitration shall be Wilmington, Delaware.
Payment of Arbitration Fees and Costs: So long as You place a request in writing prior to commencement of the arbitration and negotiate in good faith with us as provided in the section above titled “Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution”, we will pay the fees charged by the arbitrator to conduct the arbitration. But, You will still be responsible for all fees and costs that You incur in the arbitration which include but are not limited to attorneys’ fees or expert witnesses. Additionally, if the arbitrator determines that Your claim is frivolous or not brought in good faith, then the arbitrator may require You to reimburse us for the arbitration fees. In addition to any fees and costs recoverable under applicable law, if You provide notice and negotiate in good faith with us as provided in the section above titled “Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution” and if you prevail on any claim that affords the prevailing party attorneys’ fees, the arbitrator may award reasonable fees to you under the standards for fee shifting provided by law.
Class Action Waiver: Except as otherwise provided in this Provision, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action or private attorney general action) unless both You and we specifically agree to do so following initiation of the arbitration. If You choose to pursue Your Dispute in court by opting out of the Arbitration Provision, as specified above, this Class Action Waiver will not apply to You. Neither You, nor any other user of the Platform can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out requirements above.
Jury Waiver: You understand and agree that by accepting this Provision in these Terms, You and we are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court. In the absence of this Provision, You and we might otherwise have had a right or opportunity to bring disputes in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions). Except as otherwise provided below, those rights are waived. Other rights that You would have if You went to court (e.g., the rights to both appeal and certain types of discovery) may be more limited or may also be waived.
Severability: If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision whose remainder will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable and the dispute will be decided by a court.
Continuation: This Provision shall survive the termination of this Agreement, the termination of Your Account, or Your discontinued use of the Sites, the Services and the Products. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if we make any change to this Provision (other than a change to the address for notices), You may reject any such change and require us to adhere to the language in this Provision at the time You accepted it if a dispute between us arises.
