Player Skill Requirements

  • Players must be 39+ years old.
  • Players must be Advanced Beginner level (self-rated or DUPR 2.5–3.25).
  • NOTE: If you are above the 2.5–3.25 range, please consider registering for a higher‑level DUPR league to ensure you get the level of match play you are looking for. If you’re unsure which league is the best fit, it’s best to email your league coordinator before registering.
  • This is not a first-time beginners league.
  • All participants must know the rules and have prior playing experience.
  • DUPR scores will not be recorded.

Playing Format

  • Warm‑up begins at 6:00 PM (optional) with light social games.
  • Play starts at 6:30 PM with organized round robin rotations.
  • Weeks 1–2 will be played in a traditional round robin format.
  • Beginning in Week 3, players will be grouped each week based on scores from prior weeks to create balanced games.
  • Weeks 7–8 are optional partner‑choice weeks. Players may choose a partner during these weeks only if they’d like; otherwise, partners will be assigned by the coordinator, and players will continue to rotate to maintain balanced games for all players.
  • Weekly themes may be added throughout the season to keep things fresh and engaging. It is encouraged to share your ideas if you’d like with your coordinator!

What to Bring

  • Your own pickleball paddle
  • Bring water (LOTS…and stay hydrated)
  • Sunscreen, bug spray, sunglasses, comfortable attire
  • Pickleball or tennis court shoes and protective eyewear are highly encouraged and recommended!
  • We’ll provide the game balls – you bring the energy!

Be ready to enjoy great matchups, meet new people, smile and laugh, and leave the courts feeling energized and looking forward to the next week playing!
