ANNUAL BOARD MTG AND BOARD ELECTIONS
REMINDER…Our Pickleball Annual Meeting is scheduled for March 12, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. in the PAC. Please enter through the main entrance and check in (by last name) at the table. Once you’ve been signed in, you’ll receive a raffle ticket for a drawing, which will be held at the end of the meeting. We will be raffling 2 paddles, and you must be present to win.
Four kind and wonderful people have volunteered to run for four openings on the board of directors. Those biographies are attached as a PDF. Many thanks to John Dibert, Kevin Mahoney, Bob Wittenauer, and Tom Foster for stepping forward for these important positions.
ACCORDING TO THE CLUB’S BYLAWS, 80 MEMBERS MUST BE PRESENT TO CONSTITUTE A QUORUM. IT SHOULD BE A SHORT MEETING, AS THERE ARE NO BYLAW AMENDMENTS TO BE VOTED UPON, SO PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO ATTEND.
Thank you,

NEW TRIAL SCHEDULE UPDATES
We are only 4 days into the new trial schedule, but I'd like to ask for you to start providing any feedback using the TPPCI Group Chat. We will monitor your comments and suggestions and will do periodic, consolidated responses to your questions.
We are collecting Den data regarding the number of players in each of the morning events and open play times to help us figure out how to tweak the schedule for maximum participation and court utilization. We unfortunately don't have data on how many folks actually show up and play, only the number of players on the active player and waitlist at the start of the session.
Effective with the March 16th schedule, we will be moving the NPU Level A/B event to the same time slot as Level C (8:30AM - 10:00AM). Level A/B will have four courts and a 24 player limit. The number of NPU courts for each Level are adjusted on a weekly basis based on the average number of active and waitlist players in the previous two week period.
I've had a few question of late as to how to decide which NPU Level to join. The general rule of thumb is if you are playing at your level, your number of wins and losses should over time, be about equal. The new Level A/B should be a good fit for those players who are winning most of the time at Level B or losing more often at Level A.
