Cancelling Your Round Robin

If you cannot play in your Round Robin,

it is extremely important to cancel. You can do this on your mobile device from anywhere.

Go to MY TICKETS

Select CANCEL

By not cancelling, you are potentially keeping someone else from playing.

How to Get on the Waitlist

You must sign in through the website for the waitlist option.

Go to CALENDAR

Find your event, and register. You will be asked if you want to join the waitlist.

Broken Pickleballs

Buckets have been placed around the courts for Broken Balls. Please DO NOT crush them. They will be used for a project at the Pickleball Pavilion.

However, if a ball only has small cracks, it can still be used. We are cracking 100 balls per day.

Wondering what those Pink Ribbons on the nets are for?

Just move it to the middle of the net to alert your RR Captain that you have finished your game, but you are still playing for fun until everyone else finishes their games.
