PICKLEBALL LADDER LEAGUES (16+) Ladder leagues are organized leagues in which players with similar skills compete against each other in a competitive, structured and weekly format. Think of a pickleball “ladder” as a graphical representation of a player’s ranking

(by skill and performance) over a period of time.

The rungs on the ladder represent a player’s current position (ranking) on the ladder relative to the other players - with the top rung of the ladder being the individual currently ranked the highest (the best winning percentage) and the bottom rung being the lowest-ranked individual or team. The ultimate goal is to climb the ladder

The Boise Depot is a unique venue for weddings, parties, corporate and fundraising events. A beautiful historic Spanish-style structure, the Depot was opened in 1925 to elaborate fanfare in the capital city.

For-profit organizations/coaches must carry liability insurance or purchase through the city. Call for for-profit rental rates.

The Great Hall, a 3,542-square-foot space with a soaring multi-story atrium, once served as the building’s waiting room. The original 1925 Barkalow Brothers Newsstand has been slightly restored and is featured on the west wall. With a splendid panoramic view of the Boise Front, the grounds include Platt Gardens, a lovely park with pathways, a gazebo and ponds.

The Great Hall may be reserved 365 days in advance. Maximum occupancy is 300 or 165 for sit-down events.
