Open Play

Every level.
Every day.

Open play is organized by skill rating so you're playing at your level, not against it. SMASH also offers All-Level Open Play for mixed skill levels. Drop in or reserve your spot in the app.

Open play is a fun social way to play pickleball where players of similar skill levels rotate in and out of games. You can come by yourself or with friends, meet new friends and enjoy competitive games in a welcoming environment.

Two Formats
Leveled
By skill rating
Beginner, intermediate, and advanced sessions, so every game is at your level.
All-Level
Mixed skill
Everyone on the same courts. Good for meeting new partners and playing with friends at a different level.

How It Runs

Simple rules.

Paddle Rack

Using the paddle rack system, place your paddle at the court you want to play on next. Rotate in and out at the end of each game.

11-point games

Play to 11, win by 2. Standard scoring. Keep it moving — next match up after every complete game.

Rated by skill

Each open play session is rated. Join the session that matches your rating.

Check in at the desk

Scan your membership or pay drop-in at the front desk. House paddles or demos are available at no additional cost.

The Code

Play it
like you mean it.

The unwritten rules that keep open play moving. Works at cvilleSMASH. Works at your local park.

  • Call your own lines honestly — if you're not sure, replay the point.
  • Line calls go to the receiving team.
  • No coaching from the sidelines. Cheering is encouraged.
  • Clear the court within one rotation of your match ending when people are waiting.
  • Pick up balls. Yours and everyone else's.
