Rink is open year round, weather permitting. These hours are often different than the indoor schedule. During the nicer months there will be a schedule posted here. For non-summer hours, contact Josh.

Thank you ProLite & Pickleball Central for letting us demo your new ProLite Chrome paddle. 

ProLite Chrome paddle review By: Bo

The Pro Lite Chrome has the tear drop shape and I was pleased how easily I adjusted to the different shape. Very responsive when blocking shots, dinking and great pop for overhead smashes. Control and placement improved with the Pro Lite Chrome when playing very competitive matches. Two of my fellow players used the paddle during our weekly shootouts and both players had the same positive reaction to this paddle. Both players felt the sweet spot was easy to locate and unforced errors were cut down significantly. Overall I would give this paddle a five star rating. Ideal for players looking for a mid weight paddle for power play while not sacrificing the short game.
