Sports Business Leaders (SBL) is a community and meetup group for sportstech startup founders, sports entrepreneurs, and career professionals in the sports ecosystem. The goal of the community is to help SBLs better network with one another and be connected to necessary resources and critical individuals in the world like investors, cofounders, business partners, etc.

**Playing Sports Again (with friends!!)** is looking for people in their 30s-50s who want to build new friendships with others while participating in sports leagues (volleyball, kickball, softball, pickle ball, etc) and other recreational sports. Many of us played sports in the past but life got in the way and we miss it. This is a great group for those who would like to get back out there and play again! Although this group will be sports and activity focused, it is also a social group that may look to do some other things as well. We usually all get together after a game, share a drink and have a good laugh. We plan on trying hard and enjoying the activities we do, but this is not an ultra competitive group. If you are looking or that, I suggest you check out another Meetup!

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

Some courts have a winners stay on for two games policy. Some have paddle up systems where you can put your paddle in line so those waiting the longest play next.
