What does 'Beginner Friendly' mean? We don't assign levels to our leagues based on the 2.5 to 5.0 scale. Beginner Friendly means the players who chose this league will be learning and improving throughout the season and the level of play will match that. All leagues have a league director who will assist, however we do not offer clinics and players should have a basic level how to keep score and play.
All leagues are Ladder Style: This means every week your opponents are those who are ranked closest to you in the standings. The best players work their way up to court 1, while newer players are grouped on the lower courts. This allows for fair matchup and allows players of varying abilities to play in the same league.
Team Size: A team may carry up to 4 players on the roster. Only two players are needed. Adding a third and/or fourth player on the roster ensures you can always field a full team, even when someone is unavailable for reasons such as work, illness or family obligations. The team price remains the same regardless of number of players and having more teammates can reduce the per person cost. Teams play a minimum of 5 games per night and additional players can take turns, giving everyone a chance to play.
Naughty List- A player who no-show no-calls will be added to 'naughty list'. Naughty list players will not be scheduled until they confirm they will be in attendance. If that player still shows up we will still make adjustments to the schedule to get their games in for that week.
Join our Facebook Group Long Island Pickleball Partners (over 1,000 members). Players often post there about tournaments and to find partners.
If part of your team is unable to attend, and you have less than the required amount of players, you are allowed to bring a sub during the regular season. Only rostered players may participate in the playoffs.
All processing fees have been eliminated! The price you see is the exact price you pay!

Frequently Asked Questions
All New Teams come in at the median ELO of the league.
If 50.1% of the roster is returning, teams come in at their previous ELO from that league. If they are new to a location/league , teams will either come in at a low median elo or a high median elo based on performance in other LI-Kick Leagues and locations
General
ELO is a rating that reflects a player's skill relative to other players in the league. When you beat a good player, your ELO rating goes up, however when you suffer an upset, your ELO rating goes down. Our leagues use ELO as it continually adjusts to match a player's evolving skill level and provides a reliable metric for matchmaking and rankings. Players from previous seasons have their ELO carry over while new players will be assigned an 'initial ELO' to start their season.
Yes, in order to give players the most games at the most appropriate level you may play the same people or teams from week to week.
If you are a returning player ELO carries over from your previous league! If you are a new player, players get asked if they would like to start at a high, median or low initial ELO. If they do not answer they automatically start at a low elo
