ACL SIGNATURE #6 | OPEN #17
Henrico Sports & Events Center | Richmond, VA
Signature #6 and Open #17
Join us in Richmond for Signature #6 and Open #17!This ACL Shootout event is composed of not only all the round-limited Open events you have come to enjoy, but also the last event of the 2025 ACL Pro Season before the World Championships.
The world’s top players will battle it out in the last two round-limited events of the season, Pro Singles and Pro Doubles. They are fighting for points that could mean being in or out, not to mention their piece of $50,000 in payouts. These events will each play down to the Final Four competitors and then culminate Sunday on our broadcast court alongside Singles Finals from Pro Women, Pro Seniors, and Pro Juniors.
ACL Pro Teams will play the last four regular games of the season to determine their fate in the playoffs! Can the Georgia Sliders slide their way into the playoffs through the Virginia Cutters on their home turf?
Check out our broadcast schedule below so you can follow along at home with all things ACL!
While the Pros are battling it out to see who will make it to the big stage, there will also be two featured events for anyone not eligible for Pro events: Open Doubles and Open Singles. We will also offer additional tournaments such as Open Singles for Women, Seniors, Juniors, College & High School Doubles, and a USA Doubles Qualifier.
And it wouldn’t be a combined event if we didn’t offer fun tournaments where everyone can play together – Divisional Blind Draws and BYOCrew Cup!
We look forward to seeing you there for our final Signature Event of 2025!
