Paddle Stacking System for Court Rotation
Due to the overcrowding at the pickleball facility at Wyomia Tyus Olympic Park, the Spalding County Pickleball Association has implemented a paddle system at the courts.
This system will provide a systematic method of rotating players on and off the courts in a fair and equitable manner during overcrowded situations.
The paddle racks were installed April 17th and their use is mandatory when all courts are full and players are waiting for a court. The SCPA is pleased that our numbers are growing so rapidly and this paddle system will help accommodate all players.
Videos and information regarding the paddle system will be posted soon on our website (spaldingpickleball.com) as well as our social media pages (Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok).
Etiquette: How we might use the paddle system at Tyus.
Stacking Paddles: Players arrive and place their paddles in a designated area (e.g., a rack, bin, or designated spot). For doubles, usually 4 paddles are stacked, while for singles, 2 are stacked.
Next-Up Designation: A visual cue, like a marker or a pointer, is used to indicate which paddles are next in line to play.
Court Rotation: When a court becomes available, players take out their paddles, and the next group in line moves to the front.
Everyone rotates system, where all teams move.
The covered courts are a great option.
