Stuff you're probably wondering 👀

Here's what our pickles want to know.

Either works! 🙌 Sign up solo or bring a friend. We run a rotating ladder format, so you'll play with new people each game! Most people sign up solo, and leave with a whole new friend group.
In our leagues everyone plays as an individual, meaning we can't guarantee that you'll be placed with your friend during games. That said, you may end up on the same court together, if you're the same level! You may meet your new favorite friends to play with, so we encourage you to give it a try 😊
Only if you want it to be! 😏 Most people are here for social game play, but things can get spicy at the top of our ladder. Choose your own adventure 🤪
If weather forces a change, your League Host will give you a heads up 🌧️ We'll either shift the date of play, or find another way to make it right!
You'll fit right in, no experience needed! 🏓 We run beginner sessions for every league, so you'll learn the basics and play with fellow newbies from day one. Our goal is making pickleball fun and welcoming. Zero pressure, all vibes 😊
Wear your sneakers and bring your own paddle! We usually have extra paddles available, and some locations offer rentals. Just check in with your League Host!
Every league has different socials - your League Host will provide all of the details! Our post-game events are a great way to meet players way better than you (or way worser 🤪)
Everyone’s welcome! 🎉 Our leagues tend to attract a young adult crowd (mostly 26–45ish), but anyone 21+ is welcome to join. We’ve built a super welcoming community, so if you’re on the fence, we recommend giving it a try! If it doesn’t feel like the right fit, our support team is always here to help make it right. We also offer select LGBTQIA+ and 55+ leagues. Check your league page for details!
