Mount Tabor Open 2026

Portland’s highest-altitude, all-comers outdoor doubles tournament

The Mt. Tabor Open returns to the summit for a weekend of nonstop tennis. Set atop one of Portland’s most iconic parks, this is a tournament built for everyone. 

• Tournament Format
  Doubles play across three skill-based brackets:

  • A Division — Advanced (4.0+)

  • B Division — Intermediate (3.0–3.5)

  • C Division — Beginner / Developing (2.0–2.5)

  • Singles Invitational — contact us if you’re a 5.0ish player and would like to play. 

All divisions are co-ed and open to all gender pairings (any combination of players is welcome).

If there’s enough interest, we will create gender-specific draws within brackets (e.g., Women’s B Doubles, Men’s A Doubles, etc.).
