The fall 2023 season of pickleball scheduling begins on October 1, 2023 and runs through January 13, 2024. To prepare for the season and enable the scheduling committee to determine the number of courts and time slots to allocate to group play we are requesting that all individuals who wish to establish a “Group” to play during the fall season submit a request for courts and times.
The request for group time should include the number of courts you would like for your group, the number of times you’d like to play per week , and what days and times you would like to play. Our preliminary parameters allow for one, two or three-court groups to apply for 2 group time slots per week and four-court groups to have 1 time slot per week. Please include a list of your anticipated group members as well.
While October can still be warm, we’ve generally been able to schedule for a full day’s play during the fall season. The schedule showing POTENTIALLY available days and times can be found here: 2023 Preliminary Fall Pickleball Schedule. (If you have issues with this link, go to highlandspickleball.com and access the files tab.) Only HPA-Organized events and 3 placeholders for on-demand play are currently blocked out on the schedule. Once we have an idea of how much time for group play has been requested, we will determine if we need to implement any group limitations such that we can ensure adequate “on demand” time for weekly reservations, OR if we may be able to expand group play time.
Please submit your request for group play in a format similar to the table below by end of day on September 15th, 2023to scheduler@highlandspickleball.com:
# 1 Preference# 2 Preference# 3 Preference
Play Slot #1# of Courts Required
Day of the Week
Play Time
Play Slot #2# of Courts Required
Day of the Week
Play Time
If you have questions before September 15th, please reach out to scheduler@highlandspickleball.com.
The lottery for fall group play times will be held on on September 25th at 4:00 PM in the Tortolita room. More details to follow once the group play submissions have been received and analyzed.
As you know, we are scheduled to gain four additional pickleball courts sometime late in the fourth quarter of 2023. If those courts are finished prior to the launch of the January high season, the new courts will be scheduled using 100% on-demand reservations until the High Season schedule starts.

Scheduling and Court Usage Committee
