Beginner / Novice Play- start date Tuesday October 13th
Robert Ogilvie School Tuesdays | 6:00–9:00 PM
This session is designed for:
Brand new players
Players who have played a little but still consider themselves beginners
Members wanting slower-paced games with guidance before moving to Open Play
If you are new to pickleball, we ask that you attend a few Beginner/Novice sessions before joining Open Play. This helps create a smoother transition, as Open Play can be quite busy and there is no expectation of instruction during those sessions.
Drop-In Information
First Beginner Night is FREE for non-members.
Additional drop-ins are $10 per visit.
After the first free visit, non-members must have a Pickleball Canada membership for insurance purposes but most become full members to continue play.Cost is $100.40 per calendar year.
Current PCP members attend Beginner Nights at no additional cost.

During Open Play we use a paddle system.
When you arrive:
Place your paddle in the Loser slots.
Paddles are pulled in order of placement.
After each game, place your paddle in either the Winner or Loser slot based on your game result.
Open Play is open to all club members regardless of skill level. However, if you are completely new to pickleball, please attend a few Beginner Nights first so Open Play is not delayed by instructional play.
Gym Etiquette
To keep everyone safe and ensure play runs smoothly, please follow these guidelines:
Protective eyewear is highly recommended.
Wear proper indoor court shoes.
Remove outdoor shoes at the entrance.
Sign in every time you attend (look for the binder).
Please take all garbage with you when you leave.
Never walk behind a court during a rally. Wait until the point is over before crossing.
If seated on benches behind active courts, please be mindful not to distract players, especially during competitive play.
If your ball rolls onto another court:
Stop immediately.
Call "Ball!"
Wait until the rally has ended before retrieving it or allow another player to return it to you.
Never chase your ball into another court while play is still in progress.
Stay within your own court area whenever possible.
No ball is worth an injury!
A small first aid kit is available in each ball bin should you need it.
Indoor play can become very busy with players moving between courts and retrieving balls, so please be patient and respectful of others.
Children & Spectators
During club play, please do not bring children or spectators into the school or gym unless they are registered club members.
All participants must hold both:
Pickleball Canada membership
Peace Country Pickleball Club membership
This is required for insurance purposes and membership helps with costs such as balls, nets and court maintenance.
While we all enjoy having families involved, unsupervised children in the hallways create both safety concerns and could jeopardize our facility agreements with the schools.
Guest Policy
We understand members occasionally have visiting friends or family who play pickleball.
Each club member may bring one guest during Open Play.
Guest requirements:
Must have a valid Pickleball Canada membership.
Must provide their Pickleball Canada membership number.
Members must sign beside the guest's name in the sign-in binder.
$10 drop-in fee (cash may be given to a board member or placed in the cash box attached to the paddle system).
Please notify the court monitor that you have brought a guest.
