PICKLEBALL PROGRAMS

YES! You can always bring guests who are non-members. The Guest fee is $12/1 hour, $18 for 2 hours, $24 for 3 hours and $30 for 4 hours. Please remember to have them fill out a FREE non-member account so we can attach them to your reservation and ensure their waiver is signed. Pass this link on to them:

https://app.courtreserve.com/Online/Memberships/ViewPublicMembership/13187?membershipId=140792.

The benefit to having them create a Non-Member Account for you is that you will not be responsible for their fees; if you only add them as a guest, you may have to pay for them. Of course, you can always pay for your guests as well so feel free to add them as a Guest (not a Player) in that case.

YES! They can rent the courts at the hourly fee of $50/hour (includes 4 players; $12.50/person for any additional players). Note, they can only reserve a court up to 5 days in advance. Please direct them here to reserve the court via Court Reserve and see our availability:

The link for Court Reserve is also on the page above (Android & iPhone):

If you prefer a desktop version, here’s a link to the Member Portal:

Don’t pay them if they seem off, but feel free to continue to make the reservation so you can save your spot (try listing them as Guests instead of Players first). Email Lauren@YelloClub.org and she’ll make sure they are correct, just include your reservation details.

Sometimes non-members will not be able to be added to the reservation on your end because of booking restrictions. Add them as a Guest for now (do not use the Player option) and then email Lauren@YelloClub.org and she’ll attach them to your reservation. If that doesn’t work, please list the date, time, and players you want to add. If it is urgent (within 12 hours) simply call 804-324-3333 and we will get it worked out.

Sometimes we are able to move things around if there aren’t enough people signed up for a program, or if things are flexible. Can’t guarantee it, but it doesn’t hurt to email and ask! Lauren@YelloClub.org

Yes! Simply go to Book a Court > Book a Pickleball Court and it will take you to the current day’s calendar. From there you can sign up for any Open Play or see what reservation times are available. This is a much easier view with just the Pickleball courts on it. Scroll right to see other days of the week.

YES! This is a member-only perk now available for you to do yourself in the app. Simply select either “2, 3 or 4 hour Pickleball Rotational Play (8+ Players)” under Reservation Type and make sure to also select BOTH Pickleball Courts after choosing your duration of time. This requires a minimum of 8 players, maximum (recommended) 16. Again, if they are players in the system, they can then pay for themselves. It will be $18 for two hours, $24 for 3 hours, and $30 for 4 hours as member guests.

Absolutely — as long as no one else has reserved the court after you. Simply email Lauren@YelloClub.org or text me 804-592-6033 and let me know you are extending your reservation (or adding a player) so I can adjust the charges. This needs to be done prior to you leaving the courts so we can alert our scheduler not to auto-bill an over-stay policy. We have a 15 minute grace period where you are welcome to finish up your games without being charged for an extra hour (if no one else has a court reservation after you), but anything over than that will be considered an extension. Unfortunately we have had some people abuse this system in the past so in order to keep things fair for all we hope you can respect the policy and simply let us know when you are extending before the system flags an over-stay. Over-stays are billed at a non-member rate ($12.50pp/hour) if the policy is habitually abused.

YES! Just make sure they attach themselves to your reservation by scanning the QR code on the Pickleball door or at the front desk. It also helps if you text/email us above. They need to have a waiver filled out before they can play, for everyone’s safety.

We ask that you cancel your reservation as soon as possible if you know you won’t be able to make it, so it opens the court up for others. Player Level memberships are asked to cancel 6 hours in advance without penalty, and Podium Members have a 2 hour grace period. However, we do understand that things come up last minute! Just email Lauren@YelloClub.org and we will work it out.

We would love to set up an Open Play time slot for your group of friends, if you have at minimum 8 players interested in coming on a weekly basis. With numbers less than that, you would just need to reserve a private court rental or simply set up your own Private Rotational Play as outlined above. When we set up public Open Play time slots, please understand that these times are subject to change and also available to other members who may want to sign up as well, to help foster our community and create connections. Email Lauren@YelloClub.org to get your time set up- we can’t wait to meet your friends! Please also know that if your Open Play time slot does not fill up on a consistent basis it may be eliminated and you are encouraged to reserve private court rentals included with your membership, so that the other court can be made available.

To keep Open Play running smoothly for everyone, we ask all members to please cancel their reservation at least 2 hours in advance if they can’t make it. When players register but don’t show up, it affects the entire group—others expect fuller courts, and we end up blocking off additional space that could have been used for member rentals. Open Play courts will be cancelled if spots are not filled up 4 hours prior so this ensures you can book them if needed. Starting immediately, a $15 drop-in fee will be applied to your account for any Open Play no-show without timely cancellation.

Not always. It depends how many are signed up, or if we have another reservation during that time. Sometimes if we do not have a lot of signups, we will have to limit the amount of registrants and limit the play to one court. We do aim for most sessions to be on both courts to allow for more registrants but this is not guaranteed. We will never make you wait for more than 1 game during Open Play so we set a max registrant limit depending on court space. 

Open Play will be cancelled at least 4 hours prior if not more than 2 people are signed up. We assume if two are signed up they may still want to go and hit around together, or play Skinny Singles (google that if you don’t know how to play, it’s fun!). If 6 or less people are signed up, one court will be made available for reservations. 

Use your code or ring the doorbell. If that doesn’t work, text or call us (804-324-3333) and we can open the doors and turn on lights. There is a light switch by the door on the Pickleball courts. The system is set up so they should be on before you get there, but sometimes we make mistakes, or reservations are made without enough lead time. Apologies!

Yes! That’s one of the things we love about having a small, private space. The first court has instructions below the speaker on how to connect to the WiFi and sound system. Please make sure that if there is another group on the other court, you are all okay with the music and volume being played. 

At the time, no. In order to continue offering free Open Play, you’ll need a separate membership. We are considering it for the future and welcome feedback. 

YES! Anytime you have both courts rented out, you are welcome to use the glow lights complimentary. Just email Lauren@YelloClub.org so she knows you want to use them and can have it ready.

Yes you can always drop in for pickleball Open Play or reserve a court, however the Pickleball memberships are separate from tennis. Here is a link to all of the memberships available:

Yes! We love parties and special events. Here is the link to find out more information:

My biggest recommendation is to never pay full price! Email me and I’m happy to give you some guidance as well as provide discount codes for local and online retailers.

Please call 804-324-3333 and we can tell you more about what offerings we have available. We have private, semi-private, group lessons as well as clinics, series and special events coming up. There are so many options, different instructors and varying availability that it’s easier to chat and see what works for you.
