Hey Meadows Players,
Another great week of pickleball is underway at Cross Court Pickleball at The Meadows. The courts have been full, the games have been competitive, and it’s been awesome to see such a strong mix of familiar faces and new players jumping in.
Thank you for continuing to make this space such a positive place to play. The way you welcome others into games, communicate on court, and respect the space truly sets the tone. That culture is something we’re proud of, and it only works because of the community that shows up day after day.
Let’s keep choosing kindness, patience, and good sportsmanship every time we step on court.

Court Booking Reminder
Don’t forget, if there isn’t a drop-in that works for your schedule, courts are always available to book for private group play.
Booking with your own group is a great option if you:
• Want consistent weekly games
• Prefer playing with the same group
• Are working toward a specific rating
• Want guaranteed court time
Just log into your account, choose an open time, and book your court. It’s an easy way to get quality play during quieter hours.
Facility Reminder – Scent Free
We remain a scent-free facility at both locations. Please avoid perfumes, colognes, and heavily scented products. For some members, this isn’t just preference, it’s accessibility.
We appreciate your cooperation.
