Please read everything before registering. These guidelines help keep our open play fair, safe, and enjoyable for everyone. ‼️ This is a beginner-friendly open play, not an introductory clinic. Participants are expected to: * Know the basic rules of pickleball. * Understand scoring. * Be able to serve and rally. * Have played at least a few games before. If it’s your first time playing pickleball or you haven’t learned the basics yet, we recommend attending a beginner lesson or clinic first before joining our open play. 📝 REGISTRATION, PAYMENT & CANCELLATION * No walk-ins. Payment first. * Your slot is confirmed only after your registration and payment have been reviewed and acknowledged by the organizers. * After payment, kindly send a screenshot of your transaction for verification. * Contributions are non-refundable since court fees are paid in advance. * If you can no longer attend, you may transfer your slot to another player. Please notify the organizers so we can update the participant list. 💳 Payment Details Kevin A.
