1. GENERAL: By entering the Tournament, you (both in your individual capacity and on behalf of the business or organization on whose behalf you are entering) indicate your full and unconditional agreement to be bound by (a) these Official Rules, and (b) Organizer’s decisions, which are final. Winning the Prizes (as defined in Section 6 of these Official Rules) is contingent upon fulfilling all requirements set forth herein.

Organizer reserves the right to unilaterally add on, modify or substitute any of the terms and conditions below at any time as it deems fit without prior notice. If there is ambiguity in any of the provisions of the Official Rules, the Organizer shall have sole discretion to interpret the ambiguous provision(s) as it deems fit.

If you cannot accept these Official Rules or the risks associated with the Tournament, please do not proceed further with registration for this Tournament. By participating in the Tournament, you have read and understood the rules and regulations of the Tournament as released from time to time and agree to participate on the understanding that you must adhere to all the rules and regulations stipulated.

By participating in the Tournament, you acknowledge you have read and agreed to all the provisions in the Official Rules for the Tournament. The Organizer reserves the right to refuse, disqualify or restrict you from participating in the Tournament and/or accessing the entitlements of the Tournament and claims thereto.

2. SCHEDULE: The Tournament begins at 4:00 PM ET on June 11, 2026, and ends at 9:00 PM ET on June 11, 2026.

3. REGISTRATION (HOW TO ENTER): Registration for the Tournament is by invitation only and can only be done by Eligible Entrants (as defined below) between May 18, 2026 and June 10, 2026 (the “Entry Period”) (or until available Tournament slots are fully filled) by duly completing the form in the link provided to the invitees via electronic mail (the “Entry Form”) directly from the Organizer. A completed Entry Form will be considered an “Entry” (collectively, “Entries”). Entries submitted outside of the Entry Period or after the start of the Tournament will not be eligible. Organizer’s computer is the official time-keeping device for the Tournament. It is each individual’s responsibility to observe time zone differences. No registration is allowed via email, mobile communications, or direct communications with the Organizer, Event Partner(s), and/or Agent(s).

4. ELIGIBILITY: Eligibility to participate in the Tournament or win a Prize is limited to individual persons at least eighteen (18) years of age at the beginning of the Entry Period who have received a link via electronic mail directly from Organizer inviting the individual to participate in the Tournament. Limit one (1) entry per individual. Except in limited instances in Organizer’s sole discretion (e.g., entity rebranding, legal name change, etc.), the email address provided on the Entry Form must match the email address to which the invitation and link to the Entry Form was sent by or on behalf of the Organizer. The potential winner of a Prize may be required to show proof of identity. All responses to questions presented in the Entry Form must be true, accurate, and complete to the best of the entrant’s knowledge. Entrants who disregard these Official Rules are not eligible to participate in or win Prizes in the Tournament.

5. TOURNAMENT GAMEPLAY: All matches in the Tournament are single elimination and will be played in doubles format only according to the prevailing rules and regulations of the padel sport as determined by the Organizer. Team groupings will be set in order of registration sequence by the Organizer, or by other means best suited for equal distribution and fairness in the tournament format.

Participants are required to be at the venue between 5:15 PM ET and 5:30 PM ET [play start time] on the day and present themselves to the Organizer, Event Partner(s) and/or the Agents at least 15 minutes before the estimated start of their matches.

Unlike professional tournaments, matches can be played with a custom scoring system within a set time predetermined by the Organizer and depending on the progression of the Tournament, to facilitate timeliness and a chance for all Participants to play. Participants will be briefed on the scoring and time frame for matches before gameplay. Organizer, Event Partners and/or Agents may provide umpires/linesmen and scorekeepers throughout matches, but it is also the responsibility of Participants to keep score and call out faults in fairness and the spirit of proper sportsmanship. In scoring gameplay disputes, the umpire’s final decision is incontestable. Hostile escalation of disputes by Participants can result in forfeiture of the match. The Organizer reserves the right to amend gameplay and/or tournament format unconditionally and without prior notice.

5A. MATCH FORMATS: Four (4) rounds (Round of 16/Quarterfinals/Semifinals/Finals) will be played with sixteen (16) teams at Reserve Padel, on June 11, 2026, between 4:00 PM and 9:00 PM ET across three (3) padel courts. All matches will be single elimination. The first team to three (3) games wins the match. Games will employ a simple scoring format (0,1,2,3,4…) with points awarded for every win and no-ad scoring. Estimated match lengths are fifteen (15) to eighteen (18) minutes per match. If both teams have the same score at 18 minutes, the match will end with one (1) decisive winning point from either team.

Round bracket: Round of 16 (8 Matches) → Quarterfinals (4 Matches) → Semifinals (2 Matches) → Final (1 Match). The two (2) teams that lost in the Semifinals are awarded 3rd and 4th place, respectively; both semifinalist losing teams will each receive a Prize as set out in Section 6. No 3rd place match is played to stay within time limits.

6. PRIZES: The Organizer is offering four (4) Prizes (individually a “Prize,” and, collectively, “Prizes”) described in more detail below: a 1st Place Prize of a choice of either (a) two (2) Harry Styles concert tickets or (b) two (2) 2026 U.S. Open tennis tickets (each option with an estimated total retail value of $1,200.00 USD (approximately $600.00 USD per ticket)); a 2nd Place Prize of a choice of either (a) two (2) Harry Styles concert tickets or (b) two (2) 2026 U.S. Open tennis tickets (each option with an estimated total retail value of $1,200.00 USD (approximately $600.00 USD per ticket)); a 3rd Place Prize of a dinner for two (2) at COQODAQ consisting of the “The Bucket List™” experience (estimated total retail value of $400.00 USD (approximately $200.00 USD per diner)); and a 4th Place Prize of a dinner for two (2) at COQODAQ consisting of the “The Bucket List™” experience (estimated total retail value of $400.00 USD (approximately $200.00 USD per diner)).

The “Winner,” “Winners,” or the “Winning team” shall be the champion (1st Place Prize), the first runner-up (2nd Place Prize), and the semifinalist teams (3rd and 4th Place Prizes), with the prizes and total prize values for each respective Winner broken down as follows:

The Winners are solely responsible for paying all federal, state, provincial, local, and income taxes and any other costs and expenses not expressly covered by Organizer in these rules or associated with a Prize’s acceptance and use. Any Prize details not specified above will be determined by Organizer in its sole discretion. The Winner acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for any and all taxes remains the sole responsibility of the Winner. Winners should consult with their tax advisors.

Prizes are awarded “AS IS” and WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, express or implied (including, without limitation, any implied warranty of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose). None of the Released Parties makes any representation or offers any warranty, express or implied, as to the quality or fitness of the Prize. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, confirmed Winners understand and acknowledge that they may not seek reimbursement or pursue any legal or equitable remedy from either the Organizer or any of the other Released Parties should the Prize fail to be fit for its purpose or is in any way unsatisfactory. For greater certainty and the avoidance of any doubt, by accepting the Prize, the Winner agrees to waive all recourse against the Organizer and all of the other Released Parties if the Prize or a component thereof does not prove satisfactory, either in whole or in part.

The value of the Prizes is per team of two (2) players (for the 3rd and 4th Place Prizes, the dinner for two (2) is awarded to each Winning team as a whole). Organizer is not responsible if a Prize is lost, stolen, destroyed, used without permission, or not otherwise redeemed within any redemption period. If a Prize is lost, stolen, or not otherwise redeemed within the Organizer’s redemption period, it will be forfeited and will not be replaced.

All Winners will be required to produce a valid identification document and sign an acknowledgement document, including any required Affidavit or Agreement of Eligibility or Release, upon collection of any Prize.

Prizes will be distributed to winners by July 2, 2026.

The Organizer reserves the right without prior notice to vary the Prizes with items of equivalent value if the Prizes listed are not available.
