If you have not played pickleball previously, or if you have only played a few times, you must first attend "Pickleball - Come and Try" or "Pickleball for New Players". At your first session, we will provide information about joining NBP and your next steps towards attending general sessions.
If you already have experience with pickleball and are familiar with the rules, including scoring, you may be able to attend general sessions straight away. This includes visitors to our region. Please refer to our website under Played Before and Want to Join NBPA.

Guideline to Player Levels for booking into our events.
Player levels are not meant to box anyone into one level, this is simply a guideline. A more detailed explanation can be found in the "Announcements" section below.
– First Timers: Never played pickleball before.
– Beginners: If you are just learning the fundamentals of the game, you are a beginner!
– Recreational players: You know how to serve and keep score, and you understand the two bounce and non volley zone rules. You can hit the ball if it comes to you, but with little strategy or control. You may have some mobility problems that keep you from playing in the optimal position.
– Lower Intermediate players: You are beginning to learn the soft game, but you have more success hitting it hard, so that’s what you usually do. Your serving goal is simply to get it in. You have longer rallies due to your athletic ability, but you often choose power over control.
– Upper intermediate players: You have a better ability to see the “whole” court and are placing your shots.
– Advanced Competitive players: You are able to use a variety of shots including lobs, spin, dinks and drive shots with a purpose and at the right time.
