A note about Pickleball

If you already have a medical waiver on file, you do not need to submit another one to play pickleball. We have everything you would need to play.

As this program develops we may add lessons, supervised play and/or reservations for court time.

For now, you are welcome to place your name on the list upon arrival.



The first 4 individuals play for 15 minutes and rotate the next 4 in and then again rotate and so on. This is not perfect but we will get there as we gage usage we will create best practice.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
