Drop-in sessions are typically offered in a two-hour block of time reserved on specific days and times on dedicated courts. All levels of play and ages of players are welcome! Drop-in play is free for YMCA members and $9/session for non-members. For questions, please email pickleball@ymcadc.org. To register, for an upcoming drop-in session, please click below.
