      Congratulations to our winners of Division #1, Jessica Rakowski and Nancy Cappel along with our winners of Division #2, Paul Silvertown and Martin Petrin.

    • Pickleball Updates

      Adult Pickleball Program Updates

      The Facilities

      We are now close to the end of our fifth month with our new pickleball courts at Mayfair West.  It has been so great to see how many people have been enjoying the courts, programs, lessons and casual play.

      This past week, we completed the task of adding blue mats to the back wall.  We still are awaiting the arrival of a custom made vinyl screen that will separate the pickleball courts from tennis court 2.

      Player Ratings

      We have been listening to you about many of our programs and one of the constant concerns is players registering for programs that are not at their level.  You must register for programs that are within your club rating skill level.  In the event you register for a program higher than your skill rating, you will be removed from that program and the app will send you an email informing you that you have been removed.

      The best way to improve is to play with players of a similar level.  The rallies will last longer, it allows you time to work on your dinks, your serve, movement, etc., with the ball moving at a pace that suits you.

      From time to time, we will be updating members ratings.  We also will be incorporating the ratings from pickleballbrackets.com for those members playing in our competitive ladder league play.

      If you are not rated yet, we need to get you rated ASAP to join into our programs, check out the Mayfair app for ratings clinics, just $10.00 plus HST for an hour. We will be adding more rating clinics during the day, evenings and weekends.

      Changes to Adult Clinics

      1. We added a new 2.75 + competitive ladder league play on Wednesdays at 7:30-9:30pm on the app, starts this week, registration open.
      2. We adjusted the level of the Friday 9:30am to 11:30am competitive ladder league to 2.75+
      3. We adjusted the level of the Friday 11:30am to 1:30pm competitive ladder league to 3.25+
      4. We will be adding a TEAM event for players 3.5+. Details to follow.

      Adult Player Arrange

      We will be posting a list of players looking to play.  If you would like your name posted along with your email address and rating, please let me know and I will post your information near the WEST pickleball courts. Email kcrosina@mayfairclubs.com to have your name added.
