2026 Outdoor Court Season at ATRC!!

LPA 2026 Outdoor Schedule at Atlas Tube Courts

See below for LPA Open Play and League times—we’re looking forward to a great outdoor season.

See you on the courts!

Open Play sign-ups will be managed through Playtime Scheduler, making it easy for you to join or remove yourself from a session at any time. While using Playtime Scheduler is helpful, it is not required. This tool helps our Open Play convenors keep track of participants, monitor membership activity, and show whether the minimum number of players needed for a session has been met. If necessary, open play convenors will assign courts based on the players who show up for each time slot. Courts may be organized by skill level, such as beginner, social, or competitive play.

The posted time slots (7:00–9:00 AM and 9:00–11:30 AM) are simply guidelines. If you'd prefer to play from 8:00–10:00 AM, feel free to sign up for either session and come at a time that works best for you!

If you need assistance with Playtime Scheduler (available as both an app and a web-based platform), please contact Lori Jones at lori.jones800@gmail.com.

Each week's schedule will be posted on Saturday morning for sign-ups for the following week.

If you signed up for a league, watch your email for start date and payment information.

Men’s Ladder League (DUPR) - Mondays - 9:00am - 11:30am

• FORMAT: Ladder (Highest points on court moves up, lowest points on court moves down)
• PLAYERS: 6 courts X 6 players = 36 Maximum Full Time Players(First Come First Server) plus Spares(If we hit 36 Full Time Players everyone after that is a Spare)
• Six games per week (minimum)
• DUPR-All scores submitted into DUPR

Intermediate Men and Woman's Competitive DUPR league - Mondays - 6:00pm - 8:30pm

• Minimum skill level: 3.25+ men, 3.0+ women
• holidays exempted (Victoria day, Civic holiday, Labour Day)

Come out to an outdoor competitive league on Monday nights for intermediate players! Starting May 4th at the Atlas Tube Center courts, we'll be running three courts for women and three courts for men, playing in random groups of six each week. Each player will play 6 games, with scores to be logged into DUPR each week. Come improve your skill while having fun on the courts!

Women’s Ladder League - Wednesdays - 9:00am - 11:30am

• 6 people per court
• follow the score sheet for order of play
• record score after each game on score sheet
• each player will play 6 games with standard scoring to 11
• at the end of play the scores are totalled and this determines what court you play on the next week; top 2 highest total score on each court moves up, lowest 2 scores moves down, other 2 will stay on the same court for the following week
• if you are absent you will return to the same court as when you left

The ladder format helps keep us playing with people of similar skill levels. Any skill level is welcome! Each week you play 6 games on one court with 6 people. Game scores are recorded and each week the playlist is tweaked with players moving up or down a court (or staying) based on performance. This should keep the play challenging but still fun for all!

Women’s Ladder League - Wednesdays - 6:00pm - 8:30pm

Join us each week for the best of both worlds, competitive and recreational pickleball. This year we will run a competitive DUPR ladder AND structured recreational play, 3 courts of each. You decide which format you prefer and let us know on your registration.

‘FUN’ Mixed League - Thursdays - 9:00am - 11:30am

"FUN" Mixed League – Each week, you’ll be paired with a different mixed partner (male/female—if numbers are uneven, there may occasionally be two women/men paired together). You will play all games with the same partner.

Games are played to 11 points. At the end of each game, all four players leave the court. Winners place their paddles under “A”, and players who did not win place their paddles under “B”. As courts become available, the next group from “A” goes on, followed by the next group from “B”. Play continues in this rotation throughout the session.

Men’s Ladder League (DUPR) - Thursdays - 6:00pm - 8:30pm

• FORMAT: Ladder (Highest points on court moves up, lowest points on court moves down)

What is DUPR?

DUPR stands for Dynamic Universal Pickleball Rating. It is a global rating system designed specifically for pickleball players of all levels. The system helps to provide a unique and accurate measure of a player's skill level, irrespective of age, gender or location. This rating system is dynamic, meaning it can change every game played and reported. This provides a real-time reflection of a player's ability and is useful for tournament ranking, seeding, and even friendly games between casual players. You will have access to log into your account at any time to monitor your performance.
