Visitors
Visitors are welcome to play at the LVR courts for a small fee. Visitor’s must either:
- be a Pickleball Canada/BC member , or
- sign and submit this online waiver for the season, before playing.
Visitor fees are $10 per person.

Reserving pickleball courts
Whether a season’s pass holder or a visitor, all court time MUST be reserved in advance. No drop-in is permitted.
In short, there are two reservation systems that are used:
- Group play: approximately six hours of court time are set aside for group play based on skill level, where slots still need to be reserved
- Free play, for access to all other hours outside of group play
As a season’s pass holder, you will have received instructions on how to reserve courts when you registered.
As a visitor, we will send you this information once visitors fees are paid.
If you have questions about the court reservations systems, courts, please email: NelsonPickleballClub@gmail.com
Sharing the courts with the School District
At LVR, we share the courts with the School District—they get priority during class time and we get priority at all other times. Therefore, on some days, regular group play may not be available. Please check the availability on the court booking system.
