Starting Wednesday July 1st, the current online reservation system operated by API through SignUpGenius will be discontinued. Indoor pickleball will move to a first-come, first-serve open-play model for all hours. No more court reservations.

Aiken Pickleball News
At the monthly meeting on Tuesday, April 14, the leadership committee voted to dissolve Aiken Pickleball, Inc. effective July 1, 2026. This decision is final. Both the City and API agreed that the Palmetto Tournament would not be held this year. Spring League will continue. Players should contact the Odell Weeks front desk for information on lessons and clinics.
We will keep you posted as to what the future will be as soon as we hear back from the City as to what their plans are for pickleball at Odell and Smith-Hazel. In the meantime we will continue to maintain the SUG thru June 30, and beyond that if the City so desires. For now nothing has changed.
Just to remind the Sign-up for court reservations at Gregg Park will now be available at 8pm on Wednesday evenings vice Thursday mornings.
Also the calendar for Gregg Park will no longer appear on our website. There are copies of the Gregg Park calendar in the bin behind the front desk. If you have any questions, direct them to Help Desk at AikenPickleball@gmail.com. Note: The sign up for court reservations at Gregg Park will remain the same after July 1st - nothing is going to change.
