Little League
Introducing Little League! Have you taken Beginner Lessons but want a little more court time and coaching with players of your skill level? This league is for you! You do not need a partner to join this league. This league is for all genders.
League Objectives:
Provide coaching and encouragement to new players
Introduce new players to league concept and scramble format
Provide court time and organized games to players that have completed Beginner Lessons
Help new players build a player network of similar skill level
This league bridges the gap between Beginner Lessons and the Tyro League

Prerequisite: Players must have completed Beginner Pickleball Lessons, or have been participating in a minimum of 6 hours of recreational games. Players must have a basic understanding of rules, scoring, positioning, and court awareness - when and where to use groundstrokes and overheads, and how to defend offensive lobs.
