Open Play - 3.5+ Advanced Intermediate

About this event

A friendly yet competitive session designed for players rated around 3.5 who are looking to sharpen their skills and play more consistent, strategic pickleball. Games move at a quicker pace, with longer rallies and an emphasis on teamwork, positioning, and shot selection.

This session is best suited for players who are comfortable sustaining rallies, beginning to incorporate soft shots (like drops and dinks), and working on court awareness. While the atmosphere remains supportive and social, players should come ready to play with intention and continue developing their game.
