Drop in play hours are from 8:45 - 11 AM, with skill level/court designation from 10 - 11 AM. During the skill designation period, courts 1-3 are for new players up to a 3.0 rating, with court 3 designated for beginners, and courts 4-6 are for skill levels 3.5 and higher.

If you need help with anything, send an email to aikenpickleball@gmail.com and someone will get back with you. We can help you with making and editing court reservations or adding your name to the "Looking for games" list, among other things. What we cannot tell you is the access code. That is for our use only. After 8 pm Wednesday evening, the Sign-up Genius is locked down, requiring an access code while the new time slots for the following week are being added. The signupgenius is then unlocked after 8 am Thursday morning and an access code is no longer required. But if you need help with anything else send an email to aikenpickleball@gmail.com and one of us will get back to you.
Players Rating Session - Contact Harve Mobley to schedule an individual rating appointment - pbharve333@gmail.com.
Please do not cross over another court while play is in process. This applies if you are moving on or trying to retrieve your stray ball. Let the players on their court return your Pickles. Sneaking behind them distracts the players facing you. Thanks.
Once again it seems necessary to remind everyone that pickleball is just a game. It is supposed to be fun - for everyone. Throwing paddles is unacceptable. Swearing is unacceptable. Telling beginners they are not good enough to play indoors is unacceptable. Arguing over line calls is unacceptable. We are all Ambassadors for the game of pickleball - act like it.
