Description of League: An Adult Pickleball League for participants aged 18 & up. The program will be capped at 16 teams which will be divided into 2 groups; based on playing level and experience. The 2 leagues will be called the Championship (experienced players) and League 1 (novices). Each team will be guaranteed 7 games during the regular season. The two groups will function similarly to a soccer league where teams can get promoted and relegated. In the Championship teams placed 1st-4th will participate in a championship playoff. The last-placed team will be relegated to League 1. The teams placed 6th and 7th will play a match game with the loser being relegated to League 1. The team that finishes 1st in League 1 will be promoted to the Championship. The teams that finish in places 2nd and 3rd will play a match with the winner being promoted to the Championship.
*We will play 2-3 seasons a year; teams will have to register for each new season.
