Open Play

Bring players together.

Create or join a casual pickleball group, fill open spots, and coordinate the game without competitive scoring.

Pickleball players coming together for a game

Four steps to a full group

  1. Create a sessionSet a preferred date and time. Open Play is for connection and coordination, not competitive results.
  2. Show who is joiningShow how many players are already in. Start from the people you already play with, then open the remaining spaces.
  3. Set the spots neededSet how many additional players are needed. A group can support up to five players in total.
  4. Coordinate the courtAgree the final court and schedule. Players and Clubs confirm availability, court access, schedules, and activity details.

Casual by design

Open Play does not create a competitive result and does not change a player's BYONPB skill level. If you want a result that counts, create a Challenge instead.

  • No competitive scoring
  • Skill levels stay unchanged
  • Up to five players
  • Coordinate court and time together

Create or join a casual group.

Coordinate the details and play without changing skill levels.
