First Timers

Never played pickleball? All newbies are required to attend an introductory lesson before being allowed to book into a regular session to learn the correct way and to avoid disruption to the regular sessions.

What happens next?

You are welcome to book into one regular session before joining the Northern Beaches Pickleball Association. For insurance reasons, our Club requires you to become a member before being allowed to book into another session.

You can apply for membership of Northern Beaches Pickleball Association here: https://northernbeachespickleball.org.au/join/. Once the Committee has approved your application and you have paid the prorated annual fee, your name will be entered into the Register of Members. You will then be free to book into regular sessions which are for “ALL GRADES” or include the “BEGINNER” or “BEGINNER PLUS” grade.

To book into a session, you will need to join Meetup (free). We use Meetup to organise player numbers and attendance. Please follow these instructions to join Meetup: https://northernbeachespickleball.org.au/join-pickleball-meetup-northern-beaches-sydney/. It is important that you book in each time you want to play.

If you wish to play in Dee Why, PCYC Northern Beaches require you to become a member on your second visit. Their annual fee is $30 … all for a good cause. PCYC then charge $9.50 per session.
