Note: The Grand Bend Pickleball Club is a social organization whose members come together to enjoy each other's company as much as to enjoy the game of Pickleball. It is very common for the club and individual members to take pictures and videos to capture special moments. Some of these pictures and videos are shared on various social media accounts and the club webpage. If you have an objection to being included in these pictures and/or videos, please inform the board by filling out the photo waiver under the members section of the web page and make sure to let the club hosts at the event know your preference as well.


PLEASE check to see if you are already in the system before you register as a new member.  You may just need to RENEW.
