Welcome to all new members of the Mono Pickleball Club. 
 

The following is a reminder of the MPC Membership Policy Article 4:

All new members, regardless of previous experience, will be considered to be a “Beginner/Novice” player (1.0 - 2.0) until they have demonstrated a minimum level of play of 2.5 (Early Intermediate). The MPC Skill Evaluation Procedure will be utilized for members to demonstrate their skills.

The policy and assessment procedure can be found < here > .

​

How does this impact you?

You will be playing on the beginner/novice court(s) until you have been assessed at a different level.
 

What should you do next if you wish to play at a different level?

1. Using the MPC Self-Assessment Skills Checklist , identify your level as close and as honestly as possible.

2. If you choose to proceed to a different level, request an observation of your play by one of MPC’s certified coaches by completing the registration available < here >.

3. Bring your completed Self-Assessment Checklist once an evaluation has been scheduled.  You will be contacted when court time is available for this assessment.
    

Note: Over 75% of 2.5 and 3.0 skills involve play at or near the NVZ line and include dinks, volleys and drops. In addition, 3.0 players require the ability to execute drop shots from the transition zone and baseline during play. 
One of the major components of the evaluiation is consistency of shots.
