MATCH PLAY:
SESSION: Social Play Pickleball - ALL 8 Courts
Join Pickle Kit for our Social Play format where you will get to play with and against other players of a similar skill level to you. The structure of this session will be our Move and Split system: "If you win - move up and split partner. If you lose - move down and split partner." This will enable all 36 players to move between all 8 courts, depending on your results.

Starting Courts
Players will begin the session playing on their nominated Starting Court
🥒Courts 1-4: Intermediate
🥒Courts 5-8: Beginner to Beginner+ (This is not suitable for a 'Come & Try')

DURING SESSION:

• Limited to 36 players: 8 courts & four reserves max
• Our RESERVES system is as follows: If you come off a court to be a reserve, after your time, return to the court you were scheduled to move to and announce that you need to swap off with a player on that court.

SKILL LEVELS:
🌟Have you OR your guest played pickleball before?
This session is for people who have played pickleball before. The ‘Beginner’ level is for people who have previously attended a ‘Come & Try’.

💪Which skill level do I choose?
The skill level that you select when booking will be used to allocate you to a court. If you are unsure of your level of play, please contact Coach Zak. To ensure the best experience for all players, Coach Zak may advise the level of play you are at - at times this will be below or above your self-allocated level.

• Come & Try: If you are new to pickleball, you will need to attend a 'Come & Try' session before joining a match play session. This session is an introduction to the “Skills & Rules” of pickleball.
• Beginner Practice: Have you attended a ‘Come & Try’ session and want to practice and reinforce your skills? During this session you'll revisit the fundamentals of pickleball, enhance your skills, and engage in friendly matches to boost your confidence before joining our 'Beginner' Social Match Play.
• Beginner: You’ve recently attended a ‘Come & Try’ or a ‘Beginner Practice’ session and are ready to join social match play. You are familiar with scoring, court positioning and the basic rules of pickleball. If you are not yet familiar with these skills, please attend a ‘Beginner Practice’ session.
• Beginner+: You've attended a number of ‘Beginner’ sessions and are feeling confident with scoring, rules and competitive match play. This level is not for new players.
• Intermediate: You can handle receiving fast balls and have an understanding of court positioning strategies. You are confident when volleying at the net and can handle receiving fast drives and speed-ups. You are working on incorporating drop shots and dinks into your game.
• High Intermediate: When playing competitive match play with Pickle Kit, you are consistently at the top courts. You are someone who has a high level of skill in pickleball and is working on refining their skills and strategies to become more competitive.
• Advanced: You are someone who has mastered the skills and strategies of pickleball and can consistently perform at a high level in competitive settings.
