Summary

You will play 5 games against different opponents each night. Check out the clipboard on your assigned court or the website to see what teams you will be playing. After each game please record the score of the game on the score sheet provided at each court.

Theme Week starts October 2nd. Theme week is a massive competition between all teams in LI-Kick. This season's theme is "Team Theme" which means your team can pick any theme you choose. 

ELO is a rating that reflects a player's skill. When you beat a good player, your ELO rating goes up, however when you suffer an upset, your ELO rating goes down. Players from last season have had their ELO carried forward to summer. Beginner Friendly teams start with an ELO of 1200. ELO automatically adjusts after every game.

Rules

Pickleball Rules


Rules are adapted from the Official USA Pickleball Rulebook. Anything not covered in these rules will follow the official rulebook found here.


General Rules

  • Pickleball is played on a 20-foot by 44-foot court with a net dividing the court. The court is future divided on each side into right and left service courts and the non-volley zone.
  • The ball is served diagonally across the net to the opponents receiving court using an approved serve.
  • Points are scored only by the serving side during regular play. Due to time constraints rally scoring may be implemented and players will be notified by the League Director or League Coordinator.
  • All games are scored to 11; the team that reaches 11 points first will win, there is no "win by 2" requirement. Exceptions are made for playoff and tournament play at the League/Tournament Directors' discretion.

Additional Info

Welcome to Wednesday night pickleball in Sayville! I am so excited to be with you all this season and can't wait to play on these awesome courts! If you have any questions now, during the night or during the season, please see me and ask away!

You will play 5 games against different opponents each night. We recently started a new system called ELO. The system starts all teams at 1200 and that number went up and down based on who you beat and who you lost to. The Week 1 the schedule will put teams with similar ELO scores against each other. Check out the clipboard on your assigned court to see what teams you will be playing. After each game, please record your score on the clipboard.

Some ground rules:

  • If your team can not make it one of the weeks, please email me as soon as you can because I make the schedules in advance. My email is mark.david.louie@gmail.com.
  • There are no substitutions for the A bracket during the final week. All players must be registered. You can edit your team roster in the LI-Kick locker room. You may have substitutions during the regular season, but we love to see the same faces!
  • Any new player to Pickleball Hall must fill out the Pickleball Hall waiver on Monday night! If you don't fill it out, you can't play!
  • If you have any questions about rules, please see me!

The Rules: We play by LI-Kick Pickleball rules, they can be found on the league page. All matches are self-reffed. The team closest to the wall will serve first. All games will be scored first to 11, teams do not need to win by two. First to 11 will take the win!

Frequently Asked Questions

Nope! Most of our leagues and tournaments allow you to join as a free agent or with one or with a group of friends (while being kept together), in fact, most first time players join this way. When you register we'll ask a few simple questions and we'll do our best to fill out your roster with players like you. That said, the free agent pool for some leagues, like cornhole are limited so your best bet is to join with a friend and form a complete team.

Generally, registration covers the cost of equipment, facility use, umpires/refs and a team shirt. You'll also be given access to the various social events we host and sponsor throughout the year.
