A New Milestone & Exciting Website Updates

Dear GPN Members,

Create a Pickleball Team League

Unlike a ladder league, a team league is a team vs team format, just like the MLP format, with a set schedule. The league’s creator will determine what type of matches will be played, when they are played, and how many points each match, set, or game is worth. For example, you may have teams of two men, and two women, that play a men’s doubles, women’s doubles, and a mixed doubles match.
