Playing Times/Time Slots (levels of play)

As a registered player, you can choose one time slot per day; recreational or competitive.  Please note that both evening times are open play only.

Recreational is for beginner players or for people who like to play for recreation.

Competitive is for players who are more experienced and want a challenge or a faster paced game.

Open is a time slot for players of all skill levels.

Players do not have to stick to one playing time for the entire session.  You are welcome to play recreational, or competitive on any of the pickleball days, we just ask that you only play one of the playing times per day. 

At the Township of North Dumfries, we are dedicated to the principles of fair play and respect.
