Three venues. Four brackets. One community. Dar es Salaam's pickleball tournament — competing for fun and friendship, playing for something bigger.
Dar United runs as four pools — Gender Doubles, Mixed Doubles, Singles, and Junior — and each pool plays its entire run at one home venue. Find your pool below, then your skill bracket for the date, time, and Swish code.
Download the Swish app and create your profile, linked to your DUPR ID.
Open the app and tap "Find Game."
Enter the orange code shown for your bracket below.
You'll see who's already signed up and whether a spot is still open before you commit.
Dar United moves across the city — each weekend lands at a different home court.
A few things every player should know before registering.
In doubles, the higher-ranked partner's DUPR determines which bracket the team must join. Want to play in a different bracket than your rating suggests? That requires admin approval as an exception.
Don't have a doubles partner? Create a Team in Swish anyway — other players looking for a partner will be able to find and match with you.
Once you create a Team, you have 2 weeks to find a partner. If your Team is still incomplete after that and other fully-paired teams are ready to play, you may be moved to the waitlist.
Bracket exceptions exist for genuine edge cases — mixed-experience partnerships, new-to-DUPR players, and similar situations. All exceptions are reviewed and approved by a tournament admin.
Four steps between you and your first match.
Download the Swish app and create a profile linked to your DUPR ID. Then tap "Find Game," enter the code for your bracket (see the schedule above), and check that a spot is still open before you register.
Tell us who you are, which events you're entering, and your DUPR rating.
Pay your registration fee through any of the three channels below.
Share proof of payment in the tournament WhatsApp group so we can confirm your spot.

Dar United isn't just a tournament — it's powered by OwosTanzania, and every registration helps fund real dental care access in Tanzania.
Oral disease is preventable, yet it remains one of the most under-treated health burdens in refugee settings. At Nyarugusu, more than 135,000 people currently have no access to a permanent dental clinic — care today is limited to occasional, pain-driven outreach visits with no continuity.
OwosTanzania's answer is the Dental Care Unit (DCU) model: a permanent, professionally managed clinic staffed by locally trained dental professionals, built inside a protected setting rather than a government facility exposed to displacement risk. Every DCU is run under OwosTanzania's full clinical and operational management, with no charge to the patients it serves.
The first DCU is a proof of concept — every outcome, cost, and process becomes the replicable blueprint for the next one. From one pilot clinic to a nationwide network: that's the destination.
Dar United gives your brand visibility across Dar es Salaam's fastest-growing sports community — while directly supporting OwosTanzania's dental care mission.
Reach out and we'll put together a package that fits your goals.
