Winter Pickleball Information

Daily Winter Schedule

Indoor pickleball at Red Sandstone begins Tue, Nov. 5

Indoor play takes place at Red Sandstone Elementary School in Vail during the winter months, typically November-May, weather-dependent. All reservations and drop-in play are for a 1.5-hour session except on Sundays when Drop-in is 12-6 p.m. Please be mindful of the snow that you track into the gym as it creates a hazard for players. We prefer you leave your daily shoes at the door and change into your court shoes on the stage. All players will be expected to sign in with their pass, or with the attendant on duty.

    Court Reservations 

    Only Vail residents can buy passes and make reservations. Non-Vail residents can play on a resident’s reservation for a fee of $10. Nonresidents can also join any of the drop-in play sessions for $10.
