📊 DUPR & League Rating Policy
As you know, one of our goals is to help you find the best games for your level.
All of our leagues, drop-ins, and events have ratings associated with them:
Novice leagues: Not policed
3.0 leagues: Rarely policed, but occasionally reviewed if requested
3.5+ leagues: Strictly enforced
Every now and then, we do have to make hard phone calls when someone registers for a league their DUPR rating is too low for. If this happens, it’s not a personal judgment—it’s just about maintaining fair and competitive games for everyone involved.
💬 Our suggestion? Move down a level, build your rating up, and then rejoin the league you’re aiming for. We know it can be emotional, but just remember—it’s a ratings issue, not a personal one.
Thanks for understanding and helping us keep play fun and fair for all!

CC Community Appreciation
The community we’ve built is the only reason Cross Court Pickleball exists and continues to grow.
Without you—your support, your spirit, and your love for the game—there would be no Cross Court. Thank you for thinking of us when you want to play and for remembering us even when other options pop up in the warmer months. Cross Court exists because we do this together 😀
📆 Guaranteed Bookings Now Available (Dartmouth)
We now have morning slots available for Guaranteed Bookings at Cross Court Dartmouth!
Interested? Send us an email to reserve your time.
What’s a Guaranteed Booking?
A weekly court rental for a full month (e.g., Mondays, 9AM–11AM on Court 1 every week in January).
You get priority to keep the spot month after month—but only need to commit one month at a time.
At the end of each month, we’ll check in to see if you’d like to continue.
This is a great way to lock in your preferred court and time, all year long!
