Pickleball FAQ
Do I need a membership to play pickleball?
Court access is included with Sport and Elite memberships. Not a member? Non-members are always welcome with a $10 daily guest fee. Compare membership tiers →
How far in advance can I book a court?
Members can reserve courts up to 14 days in advance through the member portal. Guests can book up to 48 hours in advance and must pay the guest fee in full at the time of booking.
What's the cancellation policy?
Cancellations require 48 hours notice — otherwise the reservation is billed in full.
Can my child play pickleball at TLAC?
Yes — our Junior Pickleball Clinics teach young players the fundamentals in a coached, beginner-friendly group setting. Sign up through the member portal.
Are the courts indoors?
Yes — all 8 pickleball courts are indoor, climate-controlled, asphalt-surface courts, so play isn't affected by weather or season.
I don't have a paddle or don't know how to play — can I still come?
Absolutely. Adult Drills & Skills and Cardio Pickleball are both great, low-pressure ways to learn the game. Reach out through our pickleball inquiry form if you have questions before your first time out.
I have a membership — do I still have to pay to rent a court?
Yes. A Sport or Elite membership gives you the ability to reserve a court, but court time itself is billed separately by the hour. Pickleball runs $2.50/person/hr during non-prime hours (before 4pm weekdays, before 9am weekends) and $5/person/hr during prime hours (after 4pm weekdays, after 9am weekends). All holidays are billed at the prime rate, and non-members add $10. View the full rate sheet →
