IMPORTANT NOTICE
TO ALL RUTLAND ACTIVITY CENTRE PICKLEBALL PLAYERS
Some of you may be aware that as of today Parkinson Senior’s Centre has initiated some new rules with regards to playing pickleball in their Centre. This is due in part to some of the outdoor players now coming inside and lack of space available for their players.
Rutland Activity Centre players are now going to be faced with some similar
restrictions.
1.Starting immediately there will be no memberships sold to new incoming pickleball players.
2.Starting on Monday, November 28, 2022 we are asking that you only attend a
maximum of two sessions per week. This will be monitored.
3.There will be a maximum number allowed to play in one session.
This number is 19 including the host/hosts.
This will help alleviate spaces that some players are taking when playing 3, 4, 5 or 6 times a week. There will be no playing back to back sessions on Tuesdays or Sundays.
If we can adhere to these new restrictions then we can hopefully avoid initiating the same procedure that Parkinson’s has. See below:
Registration FOR THE FOLLOWING WEEK
will start each Monday morning at 8:00am.
* IN PERSON – NO PHONE CALLS
The sheets will be at Reception
* You may only register for 1 session per week based upon your Level of experience
It is important to remember that first and foremost our Centre is meant to facilitate Recreation & Socialization not competition & animosity so please be respectful and have fun.
PS: We have a small issue with some people not being able to read signs on the Gym Doors. Please do not enter the gym until your scheduled time of play and please be considerate to other activities and members.
You can wait in the Library, the Multi Purpose Room or in the hallway near the Games Room.
THANKYOU
Pickleball is the latest craze! This lively racket game is for all ages and abilities and may be loosely described as something of a mix between badminton, ping pong and tennis.
Please refer to the Pickleball schedule below for days and times.
Activity drop-in fee for members is $1.00 to be paid at the front reception office.
COVID-19 protocols are in place for your safety and protection.
For further information, please contact Naeim Mehrabkhani at 778-214-3979.
