Come Join Us at our Mount Laurel location and play our climate controlled indoor pickleball courts. No Rain Outs, No Slippery Courts, No Public Access. **Starting Thursday, September 21st** **5:00-7:00 PM** Teams play to 11 points (win by 2pts). When the game ends, the winners will remain on the court and split (one player to each side) and the losing team will depart the court.  Two new players will come on to the court; one on each side.  Winners can stay for two games and then should rotate out. Play continues with players only playing two games in a row whether you win or lose to end of your allotted time. The cost to utilize the courts is $10/person for the 2 hour event. This will be paid at the front desk upon arrival. Pickleball rules can be found [HERE](https://usapickleball.org/what-is-pickleball/official-rules/rules-summary/) You should bring your own paddle and ball, although we will have additional paddle balls if needed. We will have refreshments available to purchase during and after the sessions and you are free to hang out and socialize during and post session. Seating is available around the court. No chairs should be placed on the playing surface. Check out our upcoming events. We look forward to you joining our pickleball community!

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

Welcome to the Lower Bucks Pickleball Club (LBPC)!   LBPC was created to provide a safe and friendly space where beginners could feel welcome to learn and play the sport of pickleball. Our **mission** is to have fun, make friends and improve skills while playing, promoting and growing the sport of pickleball in the Lower Bucks County area of Pennsylvania.   **Having Fun   I   Making Friends   I   Improving Skills** LBPC is for everyone, whether you are now learning about the sport or have been playing for a while. Even if you have never heard about pickleball or have heard about it and have been wondering “What is pickleball?” then this is the club for you. **What Is Pickleball?** Pickleball is a fun, social and friendly game. Its original purpose was to provide a game that a whole family could play together. The rules are simple and fairly easy for beginners to learn (wait until you learn about scoring😊0-0-2). You could literally walk onto a court and within 90 minutes, consider yourself a pickleball aficionado (ask the Holderness family: [https://youtu.be/MtEWJSc_FJw](https://youtu.be/MtEWJSc_FJw)). Although ideal for recreational play, pickleball can develop into competitive games for experienced players. **Playing With Our Club:** You do not have to be a club member to play pickleball with our club. Although, we do hope you join us because being a LBPC member has perks. For example, access to dedicated court times and club owned resources, eager members who can easily be convinced to play “just one more game”, discounts on merchandise, and many more. In addition, you will be supporting the growth of pickleball in Lower Bucks County and surrounding areas. The Lower Bucks Pickleball Club works hard with townships to advocate for courts, lights, and to grow the sport in our communities. We need your help! **Club Discounts.** Member discounts on purchase of paddles, balls, and other equipment. **Pickleball Central Discount:** LBPC members receive a 5% discount at www.pickleballcentral.com. Use discount code **CRLBPC**. Each time you use the discount, the LBPC also receives a 5% credit to use on balls, etc. *Please **DO NOT** re-post this code on coupon sites.* Doing so will make our code inactive and no credit will be given for any purchase made during that time. **What Does It Cost?** * **MEMBERS:** Members can attend all events for free with a membership donation. ($20.) * **GUESTS:** Guests can play for free for a limited time. After joining us for **5 events**, we ask guest to become a member or donate **$2** for each event they attend. Our club started so anyone could walk off the streets and learn how to play pickleball. We want to continue this. We also know that pickleball is a social sport and groups matter. It takes a few visits to know if a group is a good fit for you. However, the reality is that our club does incur several costs to provide a fun and organized environment for pickleball play. **Payment Information:** * **VENMO:** [https://venmo.com/code?user_id=2597499625799680433&created=1648515001](https://venmo.com/code?user_id=2597499625799680433&created=1648515001) * **PAYPAL:** [https://paypal.me/laurellparris?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US](https://paypal.me/laurellparris?country.x=US&locale.x=en_US) * **NOTE:** Paypal: To avoid any fees, do not send the money as a donation. Instead, please initiate (from the “Friends and Family” tab of the “Send Money” flow). This would be considered a “personal transaction”. If you use your PayPal balance, bank account or Amex Send account, then there won’t be any fees on your end either. * Venmo is probably similar. Make sure your transaction is just sending funds and not a purchase or donation. **Club Information:** If you wish to play with our club, we ask that you: 1. **Follow the USA Pickleball Sportsmanship Guide** and the **Lower Bucks Pickleball Club Rules and Guidelines.** We follow USA Pickleball’s guide to promote good sportsmanship. The guide defines specific behaviors to promote mutual respect, courtesy, consideration, and fair play among pickleball players. We ask you to read and agree to follow this guide. In addition, we ask you to read and agree to follow our Lower Bucks Pickleball Club rules and guidelines. * Click here to read the USA Pickleball Sportsmanship Guide: [https://usapickleball.org/member-news/usa-pickleball-sportsmanship-guide/](https://usapickleball.org/member-news/usa-pickleball-sportsmanship-guide/) * Click here to read the Lower Bucks Pickleball Club Rules and Guidelines **(Available Soon)** 2. **Sign a waiver.** We ask you to sign a waiver indicating you are playing at your own risk. You only need to do this once a year - the first time you attend an event. 3. **Sign-in.** We ask you to print and initial your name when you attend an event. Signing in provides us with useful metrics that we use to plan events and to let townships know just how many people are attending our events. This documentation, supports our requests for more courts, increase playtimes, court repairs, etc. 4. **Wear a name tag.** Names matter! They are how we identify. Wearing a name tag allows us to greet each other and call each other by our names. Name tags will be provided by our club. **Origin Story** LBPC came from the mind and heart of Laurell (Lau-rell), who wanted to introduce pickleball to everyone she met and to create a space where everyone was welcome, **especially beginners**.   Laurell first learned about pickleball from a colleague at work during teacher appreciation week in May 2021. Via zoom, her colleague, shared the rules and her passion for the game and invited Laurell to play pickleball the next day in Willingboro, NJ.   After her first time playing, (about two hours of pickleball) Laurell was hooked. The following day, Sunday, she was measuring her side yard and researching what it would cost to put in a home pickleball court. Being not the most *realistic* and *affordable* plan, Laurell knew she had to find a way to create a place where anyone could walk onto a court and learn about pickleball in Lower Bucks County.   Laurell then introduced her friend Karen to pickleball. She sent her a text that Monday and they arranged for Karen to learn about the sport about a week later. Karen also became hooked, and they teamed up to help spread their love for the game. It wasn’t long, a month later, before the two started a Facebook group and a handful of players joined. From people already playing at Firefighters Park, to people who walked their dogs by the courts, to anyone else who was curious about the game – Laurell drew them in and the group grew.   But, Laurell had a larger vision – she hoped to have more people playing more often, and to have courts reserved for pickleballers. So, Laurell and Karen expanded the group to Meetup (Aug 21, 2021).   And, that was when we realized just how many pickleball lovers were in the Lower Bucks and surrounding areas. Within two months, the Meetup grew to more than 150 members, and the courts were filled for every event we schedule.   So, we’re glad you’re here. If you haven’t yet, please join our Facebook group, and come out and play! Also, consider becoming a member to help us bring this wonderful sport to many more people. **Safety Notice:** For safety and security reasons, and so that we know who we are playing with, we require that you use your real first name and post a real picture of yourself that clearly shows your face in order to join our group. Otherwise, we will have to decline your membership.

Play Pickleball, the fastest growing sport in the US, at Princeton Racquet Club. Easy to learn and great way to meet people and get a workout.  Pickleball is available on our indoor courts from now - April.  Options are Open Play or Supervised Play with a instructor or rent the court for your own family/friends. PRC uses CourtReserve for registration so the number of attendees on Meet Up does not reflect the number of players.   Check out our website for Pickleball updates:  www.princetonracquetclub.com

Assalamu alaikum! This is a muslim foodies group with occasional hangouts in and around the Philly burbs. I see a lot of meetup groups tailored towards 20 to early 30somethings, and I have personally found it tough to connect with a younger crowd who are not in the same life stage as me, thus I wanted to make this group specifically for like-minded 35 to 45 year olds 🙂. Plus there aren’t a lot of Muslims where I live, so there’s that. You can expect meetups at a variety of local restaurants, bakeries, cafes etc, some halal and some not halal (specifically serving non-halal certified beef, chicken, etc) so I’ll be sure to specify in the event details. There may be some live cooking demos & classes, picnics, food festivals, walking market tours, and farm/orchard visits too. In addition to foodie adventures you can expect hanging out at parks, sports stadiums, bowling alleys, recreation centers, escape rooms, archery, painting, pottery, movies, fairs, theater performances, art exhibits, etc which may require going into Philly. I intend to keep the number of attendees per event fairly small (5-10 people + waitlist) so that everyone can get to know each other as comfortably as possible without feeling overwhelmed (just trying to look out for my socially anxious brothers and sisters 😉). This should go without saying but, please let’s be respectful and considerate of each other. If you need to cancel attendance for an event please select Not Going as early as possible so that those on the waitlist can get a chance to attend in your place. We get what we put into the group, and I aim to make this a friendly and safe environment for Muslims to decompress from their busy lives & make pleasant connections through food and activities…I am a harmony-loving INFJ afterall. **I do require interested Meetup users to have a *clear front facing profile photo of themselves* before I allow them to join - mainly for safety reasons but also because it'll make it easier for me and other members to find you at events.** This is my first time organizing a Meetup group so I’d appreciate your cooperation and patience as I try to plan and manage the group, adjusting my approach where needed. I’m open to any event suggestions too, and if anyone would like to host an event please let me know! Jazakallah khair

(That means no cats, dogs, boats, monuments, flowers, etc.). **#2:** You must have a **valid name** on your Meetup account, not things like "Dragon Lady" or "Rover's Dad." You don't need to post your full name, and I actually encourage you not to. But please put your first name up there, and if it's a common one, add a last initial, i.e., Jane D.
