Organized Play

Join us at Felipe for our social pickleball play groups. Get a new group of players each week for round-robin matches. Scores won't be tracked in these friendly games, but balls are provided. Up to five players will be assigned to each court for weekly round-robin play. Cost is $15 for members; $55-$65 for Mission Viejo Residents; $75-$90 Non-Residents.

Note: This is not an instructional period but rather skilled matched play. All players should know how to play pickleball before registering, even in lower level programs. Players must know how to serve and score correctly prior to the start of each session.

Players can only register for TWO Adjacent skill Levels.

Levels that offer a range such as 2.5-3.0, 3.0-3.5, 3.5-4.0 are designed for players who are not quite challenged at the lower level but find the upper level too challenging.
- Example: If you are a 3.0 player, you could register for 3.0 Organized Play or 3.0 - 3.5 Organized play if your looking for a challenge. OR
- A 3.0 player could register for 3.0 Organized play, and 2.5-3.0 if they are a newer intermediate level player.
- That same player would not be permitted to register for a non adjacent program level (2.5) or (3.5, or 3.5-4.0).
These guidelines help us keep advanced players from taking spaces away from intermediate players, and intermediate players from registering in levels that are designed for more advanced play.

Pickleball Leagues

Evening 10-Week Pickleball Leagues

Individual scores during the season determine the champion in each league division. Prizes include monthly membership, visors, hats, and more. Cost is $50 for members; $200 non-members (if space be available).

Players can only register for ONE LEAGUE due to program popularity.

Please use your DUPR rating as a guideline when registering for league. If you do not have a DUPR rating, please register by your known skill level. League players must earn a minimum of 40 points a night (over 6 games) to stay in their registered league, along with a rating reflecting the division. Players who cannot reach this threshold may be removed and replaced with another player from program waitlists.

If you are unable to register because your desired league level fills up, please waitlist. Waitlisted players will be contacted when spots open throughout the season and to SUB! All leagues submit to scores to DUPR, and if you do not have a DUPR account and Sub in our leagues, an account will be created for you.
