Intermediate Pickleball, level 3.0-3.5 in South Pasadena (FREE)
Details
If you have late afternoons free come join us for friendly games of lower intermediate to intermediate level pickleball! Our goal is to create a group of reliable regulars and newcomers that are roughly the same level and want to play for social fun and exercise, but still challenge themselves to play better and better.
NOTE: THIS IS DIFFERENT LOCATION FROM MY OTHER EVENTS.
LEVEL: Lower intermediate to fully intermediate, approx. 3.0-3.5 level. We are friendly and welcoming, but please don't overestimate your level too much as this is NOT SUITABLE FOR BEGINNERS OR ADVANCED BEGINNERS. (I am probably 3.0 after two+ years of casual play. )
HOW IT WORKS: Depending on how many people sign up we'll play on one or two courts, the second court can be used for drills if we don't have eight people. EVERYONE WILL GET TO PLAY MOST OF THE TIME and everyone will switch partners each time.
COMMITMENT: Since this is a small event It is important that people sign up only if they are certain that they will attend and drop out as early as possible, if necessary, so we can aim for a suitable number of people. Please be on time and plan to stay for full 2h. If some people want to play another 1/2-1h I will stay to provide the nets. No-shows and anyone cancelling in the last 24h before an event more than one time every so often will not be invited back. No guests allowed.
NO CRASHING, PLEASE!
BRING: Your paddle, water, sunglasses and possibly a chair. I will provide the nets and the balls.
COURTS: We will play on free courts that are easily available on weekday afternoons, but we have no reservations, so there is no 100% guarantee that we don't have to wait.
ETIQUETTE: 1) Have fun! 2) No apologizing for bad shots! 3) Tips on how to improve as players are appreciated, but only in between games. During a game only positive comments for good vibes, please!
PARKING: Easy, free street parking. Enter from EL CENTRO ST.
RESTROOMS: At the rec center.
