Pickleball: We offer Pickleball game time to the community! You do not need to be a JCA member, or even be Jewish, in order to play Pickleball at the JCA. All are welcome to play! We offer Open Play hours on most Sundays at the JCA and seasonal Coached Play sessions when our coaches are available. Open Play is free for JCA members, but we charge a small fee per session for non-member players. Coached play is $10 per 2 hour session for the general public and $5 for JCA members. We use the scheduling app Spond for registration and to share the most up to date information about court availability. If you would like to play Pickleball at the JCA, please download the app and create a free account using this link: https://group.spond.com/FDNGX
If you already have an account on Spond, please use the code FDNGX to request membership to the JCA Pickleball Group.
All Are Welcome.
People of all cultures, faiths, genders, ages, and sexual orientations are welcome at JCA of Southern Maine programs
