As we move into our busy spring and summer seasons, we want to ensure our open play and socials remain the best they can be. Please review these reminders to help keep our courts safe and organized.
💧 Hydration & Water Station
- Refill, Don’t Just Fill: Please arrive with a full water bottle. Our on-court filtered stations are “Refill Stations” to ensure we have enough ice and water for everyone during peak heat.
- Court Surfaces: To protect the court finish, no food or beverages (other than water or sports drinks) are allowed on the courts.
🎾 Court Safety & Equipment
- Respect the Equipment: Please do not lean on the nets or stomp on pickleballs. The nets are professional-grade but delicate—as the saying goes, "if you break it, you bought it!"
- Chairs & Seating: If you need to move the plastic Adirondack chairs, please pick them up rather than dragging them across the court surface to avoid scuffing the finish.
- Furniture Etiquette: If you are damp from a match, please use the non-upholstered seating in the pavilion to keep our upholstered furniture fresh and dry.
- Clear Pathways: Keep balls, bags, and personal belongings away from the divider nets. Tripping hazards are a major safety risk during fast-paced play.
- "Ball On Court!": If a ball rolls onto an adjacent court, stop play immediately. Never chase a ball into another active court's field of play.
🔄 Open Play & Rotations
- Prompt Arrivals: Open play works best when everyone is ready at the scheduled start time.
- Early Departures: If leaving early, notify the Pro at least one game in advance so they can adjust the rotations.
- Pod Rotations: Please wait to rotate until all courts in your playing pod have finished.
- Rally Scoring: If your court is the last one playing in a pod, the Pro may transition your game to rally scoring to keep the event on schedule.
🌡️ Summer Health & Safety
- Proper Footwear: Please wear court-specific shoes. Running shoes lack lateral support and can lead to ankle injuries or scuff the court surface.
- Listen to Your Body: High heat is serious. If you feel dizzy or lightheaded, take a break in the shade immediately.
🐕 Pet Policy - No Paws on Property: We love our furry friends, but dogs are not allowed on the property (with the exception of our resident mascot, Bandit!).
Thank you for helping us keep our club the best place to play!
