What should I bring to play pickleball?

For a great pickleball session, bring a paddle (though many courts offer rentals), comfortable athletic shoes with good grip, and a few pickleballs. Don't forget water, sunscreen for outdoor courts, and a towel. Many players also bring a change of clothes and extra balls in case any get damaged during play.

Do I need to book courts in advance?

It depends on the facility. Some courts operate on a first-come, first-served basis, while others require advance booking, especially during peak hours. Indoor facilities and private clubs typically require reservations. Check each court's details on this page for specific booking requirements and contact information.

Are there beginner-friendly courts?

Yes! Many courts welcome players of all skill levels. Look for courts that offer open play sessions, beginner clinics, or have dedicated beginner hours. Drop-in sessions are great for newcomers as they often have a mix of skill levels and experienced players who can offer tips. Check court descriptions for mentions of 'all levels welcome' or 'beginner-friendly.'

What are the best times to play pickleball?

The best time varies by court and season. Indoor courts are available year-round with consistent conditions. For outdoor courts, early morning and evening hours are popular to avoid midday heat in summer. Weekday mornings often attract retirees and serious players, while evenings and weekends tend to be busier with working professionals and families.

What's the difference between indoor and outdoor courts?

Indoor courts offer climate-controlled conditions, consistent ball bounce, and year-round play regardless of weather. They're often made of wood or sport court materials. Outdoor courts provide natural light and fresh air but are weather-dependent. They typically use harder surfaces like asphalt or concrete, which can affect ball speed and bounce. Indoor play tends to be faster, while outdoor play may require adjusting to wind and sun conditions.

What are the basic rules of court etiquette?

Follow the 'winners stay, losers rotate' rule in recreational play. Wait for a break in play before walking behind courts. Call balls that land on or near lines honestly. Retrieve balls from other courts during breaks only. Be respectful of time limits during busy periods. Return equipment to its proper place, and most importantly, maintain a positive attitude and encourage other players regardless of skill level.

Can I play if I have no experience?

Absolutely! Pickleball is known for being easy to learn. Many courts offer beginner lessons, clinics, or designated beginner hours. The rules are straightforward, and most players are welcoming to newcomers. Consider taking a beginner lesson or watching others play to understand the basics. Many experienced players are happy to give tips and explain rules during casual play.

What are drop-in sessions?

Drop-in sessions are open play times where players can show up without a reservation and join games. Players typically rotate in and out, with games played to 11 points. It's a great way to meet other players, practice skills, and get regular play time. Most drop-in sessions welcome all skill levels, though some facilities may have skill-specific sessions for more competitive play.
