PICKLEBALL

Pickleball is the fastest growing sport in the country, and TEIA is proud to have a brand new, regulation pickleball court opening in summer 2024! TEIA members are encouraged to learn and play this fun and social game.

TEIA members are required to have a pickleball membership in order to use the pickleball court. Members’ guests may play up to two times during the season for $5/day; after that they are required to purchase a pickleball membership.

The pickleball court is open for play seven days a week during daylight hours,

EXCEPT during the following four time slots: Monday, Tuesday, Thursday & Friday, 2:00 – 3:00 PM, when it is reserved for Youth Program activities

Court shoes are required on the pickleball court. Players should bring their own paddles and balls.

Open Play, 9:00 AM – 12:00 noon daily: “Fun, Friends and Fitness”

Mornings on the pickleball court are reserved for casual, mixed-level play for adults (19 years and older). “Fun, friends & fitness” are the keywords during this time period, and pickleball members at all levels are encouraged to come by and join the fun. Players gather at the court for friendly games and socializing, coming and going at different times, meeting new friends, and catching up with old ones. More experienced players help those who are newer to the game, and players are encouraged on by spectators. Players rotate in and out, and informal efforts are made to ensure that all players get to play and cycle through different combinations of matches, regardless of their skill level. This is a great way to meet new friends and improve your game.

At all other hours, members (adults and juniors) are welcome to come down to the court to play. When the court is full, waiting players are to place their paddles in the paddle rack, which means they are waiting for the court to open. If there are paddles in the paddle rack, players who just finished their game must exit the court so that the waiting players can come on to the vacated court.

Pickleball Instruction, for adult members at both beginner and experienced level, will be offered on four Thursdays during the summer. This instruction is free for TEIA pickleball members.

EXPERIENCED (adults): June 20, July 11, July 25, August 8, 10:15-11:30 AM
