Additional Information

How to determine which level to sign up for: 2.0-3.0--These players are new to the pickleball and have a fundamental understanding of the rules and keeping score. Players at this level have a general understanding of where to be on the court, can sustain short rallies with similar ability players, and can dink, serve and drive with medium consistency. 3.0-3.5--These players dink, serve, and drive with more consistency and purpose and understand court positioning with a partner. Players at this level move to the NVZ when the opportunity arises and understand the difference between the soft game and the hard game and begin to think strategically about shot placement and partnering. Events may be merged or split based on registrations. To ensure quality levels of competition teams may be moved into different age/skill brackets.
