Check the Calendar of Events for Drop-In times.
What is Drop-In: A Drop-In session is one in which players drop in, without advance reservations, to play other Drop-In players. There are two types of Drop-In sessions:
- A 3 hour block of time reserved each morning, on all courts, for all players.
- A 90 minute block of time reserved on selected days, on selected courts, for Drop-In of specific skill levels.
Who can Play: Players must be Grand Pickleball Club members or guests* in order to play in the Drop-In sessions. Residents (including Renters) will be welcomed for a maximum of three Drop-In sessions before they must join the Club.
* Overnight guests of club members may play at “Drop-In” as long as they are accompanied by the member. The member will need to go to the monitor station and sign in their guest. The guest must wear a guest badge while playing. The guest must be at least 16 years old to play. Monitors will need to make sure all guests have signed in and are wearing a guest badge.
