💙 A Reminder About Our Culture of Kindness
Pickleball is about fun and community, so remember:
✔ Be kind to yourself - whether you make the shot or not!
✔ Compassion over competition - everyone has good days and bad days on and off the court.
✔ Hush your butts! Swearing isn't allowed in ref’s games, so let’s practice keeping it clean in our weekly games too.
🔄 Needing a Sub for a League or Going to Be a Sub?
To ensure league scores are correctly added to DUPR, ALL subs must now be Cross Court members.
✅ If you're arranging a sub, ensure they are a member or sign up before playing. The Casual Membership ($27/year) is the best option for subs!
✅ If you are the sub, change your name on the Swish app (on the tablet) before you start playing.🚫 You cannot change it after the round has started.
These small step keeps league records accurate and makes scoring smoother for everyone!
Thanks for your help!
