Thank you for an amazing 2023!

Thank you to all of the DCPL league participants who made 2023 such a fun year of pickleball! From our humble launch in April, DCPL grew throughout the year to eventually comprise 5 "seasons" and 27 different league sessions. This could only have happened with the enthusiastic support of the hundreds of players who made it all possible. Check out our Instagram for a visual record of the year on the courts, or see the table below that remembers our various league champions of 2023:

In our social leagues in 2023, Aris was a 3-time ladder champion, and Marc B was a 3-time playoff champion. In the competitive league category, Evan and George both won 3 ladder league championships apiece. George achieved the highest ladder rating in DCPL history, compiling an incredible 109-42 record in shootout matches against the toughest opponents that we could find. Congratulations to all of the year's winners!

Our "most active" player of the year honor in the social leagues goes to David R, who played 259 official recorded games in 2023. In the competitive leagues, the award goes to David E, who completed 273 games during 4 seasons of league play (Ben S had 272). And a special shout-out to those players who were with us from our humble beginnings and joined us playing in all 5 seasons this year: Angela, Belkie, Ben S, David R, Erika, Jared, Justin K, Karen G, Meaghan, Rhonda, Sam R, Siobhan, Susan and Suzanne. Thank you all!

Ladder Leagues

DC Pickleball League is offering our next multi-week ladder leagues beginning July 2 (Tuesday league) and July 10 (Wednesday leagues) at East Potomac Tennis Center. For more information, contact us at dcpickleballleague@gmail.com, or create an account and register here.

Our shootout ladder leagues are designed for you to play multiple games with players of similar skill level in a fun and competitive environment while climbing up the ladder as you improve across the season!

We offer both "Social" leagues and "Competitive" leagues according to your interests. The Social leagues are intended for advanced beginners and low intermediate players (2.5-3.2 skill level) and consist of a one hour "shootout" round-robin session amongst 4-6 players, plus 30 minutes of open play each week. The Competitive leagues are for intermediate and advanced players (3.0-5.0+ skill level) and consist of a two-hour, double round-robin format plus 45 minutes of open play each week.

Ladder league rankings are updated each week based on your performance in the round-robin events. As you play each week, your ladder ranking will become more accurate, and your matches more competitive.

While our leagues focus on doubles pickleball play, you do not need a partner, and there is no need for a substitute if you miss a week! One of the benefits of our shootout ladder league format is that players can miss a week and not be punished in their ladder ranking -- not that anyone would miss a week of fun, right?

Summertime is here! Enjoy the spectacular view of the The Wharf across the river, a beautiful area with lots of attractive things to do before and after your play in the league!

Lessons & Clinics

Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced amateur player, we offer lessons and clinics tailored to your skill level and needs. Our lessons and clinics are taught by our Certified Coach Steve Valiant. Steve has been playing in pickleball tournaments and winning medals across the U.S. for more than 10 years. He has helped hundreds of beginners and more advanced players to play effectively in recreational and tournament play. His knowledge, patience, and encouragement will help you to improve your game.

Introductory and intermediate-level classes and clinics are offered at several outdoor DC courts, weather permitting. Private and semi-private lessons are also available throughout the week. To sign up for any of these offerings, please email wdcpickleball@gmail.com. Steve and his colleague Maya Ben-David will schedule you for one of the upcoming sessions or arrange a convenient lesson time. Bring your paddle, if you have one, or borrow one from us for the lesson!

We hope to see you on the pickleball court!
