Code of Conduct - Solivita Smashers Pickleball Club

The paddle queue is designed to guide the flow of play by indicating the next players waiting for an open court.
Starting from the left edge of the holder, place your paddle in the holder in the next available hole to the right of paddles already in place.
When players remove their paddles from the holder, move the indicator to the right to indicate the next players to play.
When the indicator is at the far right position, slide it back to the left and repeat the process.
Players may rotate in for one game, win or lose, then rotate out for the next players.
When paddles have been placed in the queue there is no switching of the order.

Play only on designated courts.
If a team plays on a court designated for Open Play or All Resident Play and other players arrive, all players must adhere and follow rules for Open Play.
Do not start before designated reserved time and finish when the 90 minute time period expires (allowing a short additional time to complete a game that is nearly finished)
If courts are not used by league/team after 15 minutes of their assigned league time, the league/team courts will be opened to use by other members.

Please respect reserved court time and do not enter courts before scheduled training, ladders, etc. or ask to play with teams who have the courts reserved during the times preceding ladders or training. Teams may take breaks and that does not indicate the court is open for play.
Treat others with courtesy and respect, exhibit sportsmanlike conduct and encourage others to do the same.
Be a positive influence on fellow players by demonstrating teamwork and fairplay.
Follow proper pickleball etiquette on the courts and avoid unnecessary interruptions by non-players.
Refrain from any behaviour / action that could endanger the health, safety, or wellbeing of others or cause damage to equipment or facilities being used.
Do not engage in the use of profanity or threatening behaviour while on the court or as a spectator.
Refrain from loud and boisterous outbursts that distract other players.
When parking at Freedom Park, please turn off your headlights while waiting so they do not shine in players’ eyes.
Model good behavior, lead by example, demonstrate self control, and Have Fun!
