Making Space for all Players
It is important to remember that all members of our club want to have fun when they play pickleball. As individuals we can vary in what we think that should look like. Some players have no interest in ratings or competitive play but for others that is what makes this sport fun. It is important that we respect and make room for all players who choose to be a part of our SPA community.
Self Assessment Ratings
All members are encouraged to familiarize themselves with the skills in each level, whether it is to identify the skills they already have or those they need to achieve to advance to the next level. Inaccurate self rating can disrupt the flow of play, frustrate others, and make the session less enjoyable for everyone. Due to the volume of players in the 3.5 skill group SPA has created a 3.25 and 3.75 level groups. If your skills fall between 3.0 and 3.5 we encourage you to self assess at 3.25. Similarly if your skill level falls between 3.5 and 4.0 please choose 3.75.
Whether you are just starting out, or a veteran of the game, accurate self assessment ratings help us to create space for BALANCED play for all levels, fostering inclusion, respect and community.
