Reservations and Organized Play
- Effective immediately, the 48-hour reservation requirement is rescinded.
- Organized Pickleball play is held during specific days and times of the week and is open to all property owners. Scheduled times can be found on the ORMA calendar on the NABR website.
- Reservations outside of organized play are not required, however courts may be reserved outside of the organized play times by submitting a request via www.orma.nabrnetwork.com.
- Reservations have priority over walk-on play. Players without reservations must surrender the court to those with a reservation at the allotted time.

- If players are waiting, reservations are not held for late arrivals.
- Court time is limited to one hour if other players are waiting. Players may extend their reserved court time if other players are not waiting to use their court.
