During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity.

Play at your own risk. Court shoes are strongly recommended for all players. Keep the inside of the courts clean and free of clothing, pickleball bags, backpacks, water bottles, and other equipment. During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport.

Play at your own risk. Court shoes are strongly recommended for all players. Keep the inside of the courts clean and free of clothing, pickleball bags, backpacks, water bottles, and other equipment. During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity.

Our values embrace community, inclusivity, good sportsmanship, and player development.To maintain a safe and welcoming environment, we ask everyone to abide by the following guidelines: Understand and follow the rules of the game as defined by the USA Pickleball Association. Play at your own risk. Court shoes are strongly recommended for all players. Keep the inside of the courts clean and free of clothing, pickleball bags, backpacks, water bottles, and other equipment. During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity. Be aware that lessons, league play, and tournaments are not permitted without prior approval from the Chatham Beaches & Recreation Department.

Our values embrace community, inclusivity, good sportsmanship, and player development.To maintain a safe and welcoming environment, we ask everyone to abide by the following guidelines: Understand and follow the rules of the game as defined by the USA Pickleball Association. Play at your own risk. Court shoes are strongly recommended for all players. Keep the inside of the courts clean and free of clothing, pickleball bags, backpacks, water bottles, and other equipment. During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity. Be aware that lessons, league play, and tournaments are not permitted without prior approval from the Chatham Beaches & Recreation Department.

Our values embrace community, inclusivity, good sportsmanship, and player development.To maintain a safe and welcoming environment, we ask everyone to abide by the following guidelines: Understand and follow the rules of the game as defined by the USA Pickleball Association. Play at your own risk. Court shoes are strongly recommended for all players. Keep the inside of the courts clean and free of clothing, pickleball bags, backpacks, water bottles, and other equipment. During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity. Be aware that lessons, league play, and tournaments are not permitted without prior approval from the Chatham Beaches & Recreation Department.

During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity.

Our values embrace community, inclusivity, good sportsmanship, and player development.To maintain a safe and welcoming environment, we ask everyone to abide by the following guidelines: Understand and follow the rules of the game as defined by the USA Pickleball Association. Play at your own risk. Court shoes are strongly recommended for all players. Keep the inside of the courts clean and free of clothing, pickleball bags, backpacks, water bottles, and other equipment. During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity.

During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts.

If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity.

Our values embrace community, inclusivity, good sportsmanship, and player development.To maintain a safe and welcoming environment, we ask everyone to abide by the following guidelines: Understand and follow the rules of the game as defined by the USA Pickleball Association. Play at your own risk. Court shoes are strongly recommended for all players. Keep the inside of the courts clean and free of clothing, pickleball bags, backpacks, water bottles, and other equipment. During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity. Be aware that lessons, league play, and tournaments are not permitted without prior approval from the Chatham Beaches & Recreation Department.

Play at your own risk. Court shoes are strongly recommended for all players. Keep the inside of the courts clean and free of clothing, pickleball bags, backpacks, water bottles, and other equipment. During member-only playing time, use the sign-up board to initiate play according to your skill level and experience. Strike a balance between level-specific and mixed-level games while being sensitive to the preferences of others. If people are waiting for a court and/or partners, Play doubles only (no singles). Score to 9, win by 2. Relinquish the court after completing your game and allow others to play. There are gates at all four corners of the courts. Enter and exit using the gate closest to to your court. Do not walk onto an active court. If your ball strays onto another court, call “ball on court” and wait for the ball to be returned to you. If your game is interrupted by a stray ball, stop and replay the point. Demonstrate good sportsmanship: Be respectful and courteous to your opponents and partners. Line calls are made solely by the receiving team; give your opponents the benefit of the doubt and accept their line calls graciously. Call any foot faults at the baseline or kitchen line committed by you or your partner. Play your best game but remember this is a recreational sport. Tailor your intensity of play to the skill/experience of your opponents and help newer players learn the game. Keep your cool on and off the court. Refrain from verbal outbursts or profanity. Be aware that lessons, league play, and tournaments are not permitted without prior approval from the Chatham Beaches & Recreation Department.
