Courts 1 - 6 from 10 - 11 am--Peter Principle of Pickleball Play (Rise to your level of pickleball incompetence.)
The purpose of the Peter Principle of Pickleball Play is to allow people to keep the same partner for consecutive games without having to split if they win or sit if they lose.
By moving up a court by winning and down a court by losing, the level of competition tends to coincidence with the ability levels of the teams.

* Keeping the same partner, move up a court when you win and down a court when you lose.
* All games end with a 10 minute time limit.
* All games end with a 10 minute time limit.
* If a game is tied when the 10 minute time limit buzzer sounds, play sudden death to determine the winning team--the next point wins, regardless of which team serves.
* After rotating, the winners of the previous game have the choice whether to serve first or to receive.
* If players are waiting, the losing team from the bottom court rotates out for a game.
--If one player is waiting, that player must wait for someone to leave to rotate in, or find partners who are willing to take turns playing with them.
--If two players are waiting, they rotate in by replacing the losing team from the bottom court.
--If three players are waiting, two form a team and rotate in by replacing the losing team from the bottom court. The third person must wait for someone to leave to rotate in, or find partners who are willing to take turns playing with them.
--If four players are waiting, they must set up another net, form two teams, and become the bottom court.
