Skill Level Play

Posted May 30th, 2021

The heat has arrived, along with the humidity and afternoon showers!

We recognize that many of our members will prefer to play on the covered courts as the summer heat makes it challenging to play outside and the afternoon thunderstorms make it impossible to play on the uncovered courts.

As our membership has grown over the past 11 months we anticipate that foot traffic will be heavy on the covered courts during the summer months. We will therefor implement the following  Skill Level Play schedule for the 8 Advent Health Covered Courts beginning Sunday June 6^th.

Participation is open to members and non-members. Non-members will need to pay the $12 daily play rate.

Novice Play (Beginner - 2.5)

• Monday 5 - 8pm, AdventHealth Covered Courts 1-5

• Additional Novice Play - Due to increased interest from new players we are adding a 2nd and 3rd scheduled Novice Play time on uncovered courts 9, 10 & 11

  Wednesday          9am to 11am   Uncovered Courts 9, 10 & 11Friday                   9am to 11am  Uncovered Courts 9, 10 & 11

• At all times Uncovered Courts 9, 10 & 11 are designated for Novice Play

Intermediate Play (3.0 - 3.5)

Outside of the specific times on the covered courts you also have the option to join others at your skill level on the courts designated for your skill level.  Please visit the Court Usage page for a detailed court map showing skill assignments. 

If you would like to reserve a court for a foursome to have a competitive game see our Reserve A Court page on how to do so.

In addition, Pictona will offer opportunities for other forms of competitive play. 

These options include:

• Ladder play where players challenge the players higher on the ladder to advance up the ladder. Visit the Ladder page for more details.
• Leagues among members for various skill levels, ages, and gender.
• Tournament play, visit the Tournament page to see the upcoming schedule.
• A weekly scheduled Challenge Court.
• Fun and competitive Round Robins for different skill levels and gender. See our Summer June 2021 schedule here.

These activities will be announced to members through this website and the Pictona newsletter.
