Miami Pickleball Club Playoff Race: At the Major League Pickleball event in New York over the Fourth of July weekend, the Miami Pickleball Club and the New York Hustlers both faced tough losses. The event raised more questions than answers about their chances of making the playoffs this season.
Both Teams Lose the Ground
The Miami Pickleball Club and the New York Hustlers each had disappointing performances. They lost all their matches except for one, where Miami beat New York. That was Miami’s only victory in the event.
New York finished the weekend without earning a single point and is now stuck at the bottom of the standings. Miami earned just three team points across five matches. This caused them to fall behind the Chicago Slice in points per game.
Chicago and Carolina Gaining Momentum
With this shift, both the Chicago Slice and the Carolina Hogs are now ahead of Miami in the race for the final playoff spot. The momentum is clearly with Chicago and Carolina, while Miami continues to slip.
Unless Miami turns things around quickly, they risk missing the playoffs. New York’s current form makes a postseason run very unlikely.
Time Running Out
The remaining matches this season are critical. Miami needs better results to stay in the playoff chase. New York, with no team points from New York, must regroup fast if they want to avoid finishing last.
