Based on the feedback from the MiLP Tournament in July, the Club will host an Intermediate tournament in September.
Signup is via Playtime Scheduler.
Beginner Lessons, Courthouse Courts, Saturday, 5 September
Katie Holmes will be running the final session of Beginner Lessons for the year. The lessons have been very well received, and thanks to Katie and all the other volunteer instructors for growing the Pickleball community here in Port Townsend!
Intermediate Round Robin
The popularity of this event continues to grow! Consequently, we’ve had some confusion regarding the sign-up procedures. Our hosts post every Round Robin on Playtime Scheduler in the morning 5 days prior to each event. This is a first-come, first served process. These events fill up quickly, so you need to be proactive to join. Carol Anthony-Gartlan and Mona Sharpe are posting sessions for intermediate players after Round Robin, from 11am to 1pm, that offers members more opportunity for play.
Congratulations to the following Club members!
