Dobson Ranch Pickleball Is On A Roll! Great Weather (mostly) & Great Attendance

by Rich Bitner - Recreation Committee Pickleball Representative

Pickleball at The Ranch is off to a strong start for 2024. With only a few rain-outs here and there, we are regularly using 5 or 6 Courts in our morning drop-in play, and night play exceeds that on a regular basis. We will stay on winter hours until the heat starts coming back and the sun comes up earlier. Morning “Drop-In Play” starts officially at 8 am Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday, including holidays (usually), although we do have a regular cadre of players that like to start at sunrise. We also have players staying until 10:30 am or so, if you are a late starter. If you are in a rush to get to work, or not so much check us out!!

Join in and talk to your neighbors and you will surely find people to play with at various starting times, so you can easily arrange your own foursomes to play on your own schedule. Courts are open from sunrise until 10pm under the lights at our Los Altos Courts. Please contact Rich Bitner (rebitner@cs.com) for further information about morning play, to get referrals for professional instruction, and to get on our email list for announcements regarding pickleball schedules, weather issues, maintenance and other activities. Please contact Donna Ransom at donna85202@gmail.com to get on her email list for Monday and Thursday night play.
