If you are finding that there is not enough mixing of players , simply wait for others to add their paddles before adding your paddle back to the rack . The system works on a “ next court open ” premise , whereby the next four ( 4 ) paddles in the paddle holder will go out on the next open court to play their game . Again , once you have finished playing , all players must exit the courts and rejoin the paddle saddle system if you wish to play more . Open Play is specific to Pickleball and is designed for the social aspect the game was intended for . If you are unsatisfied with mixing up with other players , please create a foursome and reserve a court at a time that suits your party . Please note : Open Play is for Residents and Transfer Members only . No day guests or house guests are allowed to play during open play . Please make a separate reservation if you and your guest wish to play . There are vast number of people playing in open play , please make a reservation if you wish to have more court time . Under no circumstances are you allowed to cheat the system , stay on the court longer than 1 game , or manipulate the paddle system in any way . If you have a reservation immediately before or after Open Play , you are not permitted to participate in Open Play . We hope you enjoy your time on court , as we look to improve you experience .
