The Sporting Club at the Bellevue Pickleball
Welcome to The Sporting Club at the Bellevue's Pickleball group! This is a private group for current and former members. The main purpose of this group is to give Sporting Club members a way to organize play at the club.  With so many available times to play throughout the week sometimes you just never know if anyone is playing.  I get it, and I think it’s a good “problem” to have.  Hopefully this Meetup group can help alleviate that and allow you all to communicate and see who’s playing.  Eventually we can find times to just allow Beginner play. Maybe even Advanced times too!   Some rules/etiquette/thoughts: -Court 1 is closest to entrance of hallway.  Court 2 is center court.  Court 3 is furthest away closer to the Golf Pavilion. -Whichever team is closest to the hallway serves first. -Games are to 11.  Would love to give incentive for winner’s to be able to stay on and play 2, then sit.  All new 4 then comes in. -No one should be playing more than 2 games in a row when others are waiting -That being said, if you just played a long competitive match, and 8 or 10+ people are waiting to play, instead of playing your 2nd match in a row because you won, do you sit and bring on a whole new 4?  Your call to make, but I think the “waiting” members would love that.  Remember you’re going to also be “waiting” at some point. -Please try to incorporate other members to switch up matches if possible. -Try and respectfully coincide with basketball members.  We’re all members of this great club and trying to utilize the courts as best as we can.  -We can’t make everyone happy, but I’d like to try. -Always know there are things you can be working on in your game, even if you end up “playing down” with lower skilled members.  Lower skilled members appreciate being able to play with higher skilled members because it helps them get better. -I’d like to get 2 permanent Beginner/Intermediate clinics on the schedule.  Only 1hr.  Members are loving it and more clinics! -Do we have interest in an Intermediate+/Advanced clinic?  It would mostly be focused on drilling, strategy, and advanced techniques.  I would name it "Drills and Skills". It has a nice ring to it! Let me know. -Dinking and Banging can both be exhilarating! -HAVE FUN!     That’s all I have for now. I’m open to your feedback and suggestions.  I appreciate you all for being here and playing this great sport we all love!   Sincerely, Arnold (your resident “do you need a 4th”) Director of Athletics PPR Certified Pickleball Instructor

Fairless Hills Singles 30+ Social Connections
Hi, and thank you for your interest in the 30+ singles group. I created this group for 30 and up since, based on my life experience, various people have various preferences so... I didn't want to limit our opportunity to meet people we relate to or might be interested in meeting. My intent for starting this group is to help extend our social network with the hopes of finding new friends and possibly form relationships. I'm sure there are various reasons each of us have as to why our social lives and interactions with others has decreased. In my case, I've been working remotely for almost 3.5 years. Covid obviously has had a significant impact on all of our lives. In addition to friends getting married over the years and a very dear friend of mine passing suddenly last year, a large portion of my social life was my work environment. I still have good friends I met at past jobs. Since working from home, that has not been an option. I'd rather not get into specifics. I prefer to leave that open for discussion when we meet at our events. There, we can all share our experiences, challenges, and hopefully provide valuable suggestions with each other. More importantly, have fun, interesting conversations, introduce each other to new interests/hobbies, etc. I am open to suggestions on good places for our group to meet in and around the Fairless Hills area. A place in a public environment that also offers food and beverages. I am excited to see where this goes and to meet you in the not too distant future. Steve
