Where and When We Play
We play at the Dallas Pickleball Courts when the weather permits. The normal days and times are listed under Club Play.
There are two methods people use to coordinate play outside of these times. One is Teamreach and the other is playtimescheduler.com.
Beginner lessons are available for anybody interested in learning this sport. Please see the lessons section for when and where.
Club Play Location in Dallas, Oregon
Outdoor Dallas Courts
Outdoor Play - weather permitting
Mon, Wed, Fri, 9am to 12pm
If the weather is bad we will play indoors at G3 in Corvallis. A notification is usually put on teamreach if we are playing indoors. Playtimescheduler is used to indicate if you plan on playing indoors.
Lessons
Our club offer free lessons. We focus on basic introductions to the various skills needed to play, safety tips, strategy and court positioning. We would recommend that if you are a new player, you take a few lessons before joining our club during regular play. This will give you some confidence and a better sense of game play.
Beginner lessons are held at the pickleball courts unless there is a scheduled event during that time. When the courts are busy they will be held at the tennis courts across the street from the pickleball courts.
The next lessons are:
Tuesday August 2nd at 9am
Tuesday August 9th at 6pm
Tuesday August 16th at 9am
Tuesday August 23rd at 6pm
Teamreach is an application you put on your phone. We use it to communicate changes to play times for club play. People also use it to setup up times to play outside of club play times.
Install this on your phone from the Google play store for Android phones or the App store for iPhones. The Teamreach.com website has links to the application.
Once you install the application enter "barberry" in the group code to join our group.
Playtime scheduler is a website that is used to schedule time to play outside of the club play times. It is free to join. You can see what events are already scheduled for a specific week and who is already signed up to play. Click here to go to the site: playtimescheduler.com
On the left hand side of the screen there is a dropdown option to select what area you want to see the calendar for. When it is bad weather we will play at G3 so you want to change the drop down to "Albany / Corvallis / Lebanon ...", otherwise use "Dallas - McMinnville - Salem...".
