Hey Meadows Players,
Another exciting week of pickleball is ahead at Cross Court Pickleball at The Meadows! From level-based drop-ins and coached drill & play sessions to beginner-friendly programming, there are lots of opportunities this week to get on court, sharpen your skills, and enjoy some great matches.
We’re so proud of the community that continues to grow here. The welcoming energy, supportive attitudes, and positive sportsmanship you bring each day truly set The Meadows apart. Whether you’re a longtime player or brand new to the game, you help create an environment where everyone feels comfortable, encouraged, and excited to play.
Thank you for treating each other with respect, being patient during busy times, and helping us keep the facility clean and organized. It might seem like small things, but they make a big difference in keeping our space enjoyable for everyone.
We can’t wait to see you on the courts this week!
UPCOMING DUPR EVENT
Our DUPR Round Robin is slightly different from a traditional tournament format. It’s designed to be a low-stress way to get lots of quality games in while helping improve the accuracy of your DUPR rating. The focus is on match play and data collection rather than podium finishes, so players can relax, compete, and enjoy the experience.
