The Nanaimo Pickleball Club (NPC) is pleased to offer two opportunities for novice players to move up and play on more competitive courts in Club play sessions. For a copy of our ratings policy please click HERE
1) Skill Based Assessment - The Club has partnered with Lee MacDonald, an IFPTA Certified Level 1 Coach to provide a Skill Based Assessment of a players' skill level for 2.0-3.0 level players. Lee has provided pickleball training at three progressive levels over the past seven years for more than 3700 hours and therefore is well qualified to provide an assessment of a players skill level at this level. The Club will accept Lee's assessment of a players skill level and will move players to more competitive courts based on Lee's recommendation. There is a fee for this service assessment and is for NPC Use Only. Complete details can be found in the attachment below.
2) Enter in a sanctioned or non-sanctioned tournament at a higher level that you are currently rated and place at that tournament. For full details see our rating policy above.
