St. Louis Beginners Pickleball Meetup Group

Our Reservation Team has reserved Courts 5, 6, and 7 from 3:00-4:30, but we can play longer. This is the winter play time, weather permitting.
The entrance is next to the water park, blue circled walkway.

If you haven't signed up - don't show up and expect to play. Uninvited will be asked to leave if there is no extra space.

Beginners- If you need instruction or a paddle, please contact Steve, the organizer. If you want to buy a nice paddle, I have them for $10.

This is intended to be fun but not competitive play, those seeking competition can go elsewhere.

All experienced pickleball players are expected to assist with teaching beginners learn to play.

Also, take it easy on beginners, have had some complaints. Please be considerate.

No bullies please! If you have a great serve that no one can hit, please don't use it.

Please donate - or use Venmo - @Steven-Donatiello - last 4 of phone 5948, or cash is always welcome! MeetUp fees, which I pay, are $110 per 6 months. Thanks

The front desk has ice for injuries and Saint Mary's ER is the closest ER open late and the phone number is 314-768-8000 option 3. There is a new Total Access Urgent Care at 7816 Big Bend 314-476-6173, somewhat closer open 8-8.

Never run backwards!!

This meet-up is for beginners to learn the sport without having to sign up for lessons, etc. I and others have spare paddles, and experienced players will provide instruction. We pair beginners with experienced players to help with the short learning curve for this sport.

I play when weather is permitting, over 40 and <10 mph wind and dry.

Please come to the tennis courts' office area to meet.

Fees are $3 for residents with ID card (which costs $5) or $5 for non-residents. Memberships are $60/$90 for resident and non-residents, so if you like the group, buy an annual membership and maybe save some money-but wait until January as these passes are valid January-December.

Please remember, Pickleball is the leading cause of Emergency Room visits by those over 50, so take it easy.

Bring lots of water and a brimmed cap to keep out the glare of the sun/lights. Gloves for once it gets colder.

Let's make these a good way to get light exercise.
