How It Works

*All matches are played first to 11 points, unless otherwise instructed by the Pickleplex team.

1 Court (5-Player Rotation)

With 5 players, one player rotates out and sits after each game.

2 or More Courts

* ​The Bucket System (Rotation): We use a two-bucket system (Winners and Runners-Up) to keep games moving fairly. Simply place your paddle in the appropriate bucket after your match. A marker will indicate which group is next in line; once a court opens, the marker moves to the other bucket to ensure everyone gets a turn. ​

Pro Tip: We highly encourage mixing it up! Open play is the perfect time to partner with someone new and grow our pickleball…
