DCTC Pickler Facts:


With the popularity of pickleball increasing dramatically here at DCTC, we are excited to be able to have Mike Walter at 425-765-8590 (PickleballDCTC@gmail.com) and Debbie Walter at 206-930-8699 (Debbie@DebbieWalter.com)  as our Pickleball Co-Directors. Mike and Debbie facilitate daily court flow, manage Round Robin play, coordinate In-House and Desert League play, provide demo paddles/balls, manage pro shop, facilitate special holiday events and more. Mike is ranked in the top 20 Senior Pro division and Debbie is a 4.5 tournament gold/silver medal winner.


We have six beautiful, dedicated courts right here at DCTC offering social and organized play throughout the week. Since Pickleball combines elements of tennis, ping pong and volleyball the learning curve is extremely fast, with fun being a must! 


Players here at DCTC have teams competing in the Desert Pickleball League. We fielded a Men’s Elite team, a Men’s Premier team and a Women’s Premier team. League play is typically Thursday afternoons. The Men’s Elite and the Women’s Premier teams were proud to medal for the 2020 season!


With pickleball being so social, DCTC sponsors many events throughout the season. It starts with the DCTC opening party partnering with the tennis and social committees, continues with social play, round robins, drill clinics and men's/women's in-house league to name a few. You will find the pickleball seating area decorated for fun play on Super Bowl Sunday, Valentine’s Day, various fun fashion theme days like Crazy Shirt Day, Safari Camo Day, Neon 80s Day and even musical fundraiser events here at DCTC. 


Fun Pickler Facts:


Pickleball has experienced a 385% growth since 2010 with more than 5 million players. Approximately 111 pickleball courts are added each month in the U.S. and many in Canada too. 


The Pickleball National Championships are held in early November at the Indian Wells Tennis Garden with over 5000 participants broadcast on ESPN. Several of our own DCTC players have competed in this event! The championship grows each year with plans to be at Indian Wells for years to come.


Because pickleball is easy to learn and play, you will find families and groups grabbing a court and playing most afternoons too.
