Pickleball FAQs
Can I bring my friends?
Alpert JCC members are allotted complimentary guest passes in limited quantities:
Adult/couple memberships – 6 Guests passes/year
Family memberships – 12/year
After exceeding the amount of complimentary guests, members may purchase additional guest passes are $10/adult and $5/child (free for children under 2).
All guests are held to the same policies and code of conduct as our members. Members may have their guest privileges restricted, their membership suspended, or terminated if their guests fail to comply with AJCC policies or conduct.
Can I bring my own equipment?
Members may bring their own paddle but may not bring their own ball. Limited equipment is available to check out.
If I play often, can I store my equipment at the J?
Lockers can be reserved in either our upstairs (adults-only) or downstairs (pool & gym-side) locker room with the Club J membership enhancement for an additional $14.50/month. Club J also includes water and towel service. Please contact Michelle Sears to upgrade your membership.
Can I reserve the court for my group?
A:Court reservations may be available??
Can I coordinate with other players?
Feel free to join our Pickleball WhatsApp group to find more players and coordinate games. The WhatsApp group is an organic group-chat not moderated or facilitated by the Alpert JCC. Please demonstrate proper etiquette and respect to all participants.
Is your court different from other Pickleball courts?
Our court is sized and approved by USA Pickleball Association regulations.
Do you have dedicated hours for new or advanced players?
All open-play hours are open to all skill levels. The spirit of Open Play is that everyone gets to play with different players in a recreational and fun setting. The objective is to have people learn from playing with others at a variety of levels. (insert clinic info!)
How does the game begin?
Place your paddle in the paddle saddle, stacking left to right.
If there are eight (8) or more people waiting, play 4 on and 4 off.
If 7 or fewer people are waiting, play 2 on and 2 off. Winners stay and split to play with a new partner.
If you have played two (2) consecutive games and players are waiting, step off the court so others can play, and place your paddle back in the paddle saddle if you would like to continue playing.
What should I wear?
The internet is full of pickleball fashion inspiration, but we encourage players to wear whatever feels comfortable! Shirts and closed-toe shoes are required.
