We have all 6 courts.
1 - 2 for Beginners & Beginner-intermediates / 4 - 5 for Intermediates and advanced players
It's always a good idea to warm up before you start play.
Please contribute before coming onto the courts. I ask $5 per player contribution but no-one is turned away for lack of funds. I reserve the courts a month ahead of time so your contribution is needed and appreciated to keep the Meetup afloat and the courts reserved.
Venmo handle is @LindaEMoran last 4 confirming digits are 1344.
We can shift the court as needed to accommodate the skill level of players who are present.
NOTE TO BEGINNERS: There are no formal lessons given at this event.
We ask beginners to familiarize themselves with the rules before coming out if you can. 2 Quick ways to get started:
- The Official USA Pickleball Website
- Take 2 minutes and watch this 2 minute video a few times and you'll understand more than you think: https://youtu.be/fTvPYdKZqO0. Lastly, there are loaner paddles at the court or borrow one from a friend.
- For a longer tutorial that goes into more detail and features one of our members. Pickleball basics
NO RSVP required, just show up if you want to play. RSVPs are not indicative of turnout.
