❌ This tournament does not count towards your KNLTB ranking. You therefore do not need a KNLTB ranking or membership to participate. You can find a detailed explanation of the different levels below.
Beginner (approx. KNLTB 8/9), Intermediate (approx. KNLTB 6/7) and Advanced (approx. KNLTB 4/5).
During the group stage, we divide players within the Beginner category into level 8 and level 9 where possible, so the matches are more competitive and enjoyable. We apply the same principle to the other categories.
Not sure about your level? No problem! We’ll be happy to help you choose the right category. Feel free to send us an email at info@padelspijkers.nl.
