Your own half of the court in Regina, and your own key to it.
Prairie Pickleball is a private daytime club inside the HoopLife Centre. You book your own half of the court for a two-hour session, the same time every week, you let yourself in, and you bring whoever you like. One person joins. Everyone they bring plays.
Only 9 founding memberships left at $600 a month

Sign, pay, pick up your key
You sign a short membership agreement, pay by card, and collect the fob that lets you into the building at your time.
One member. One bill. Bring who you like.
The membership costs the same whatever the size of your group, so growing it costs you nothing and halves what everybody pays. A group of four pays $150 each a month, which is $8.65 an hour on the court. Split eight ways it is $75 each a month, or $4.33 an hour.

What a membership gets you
Your own key
A fob that lets you into the building at your court time. Nobody to wait for and nobody to let you in.
Half the court, private
Two nets and room for eight. Nobody else plays on your half while you have it.
The same two hours every week
Held for you for as long as you are a member. You are not booking it again each week and racing anyone for it.
Weekday mornings and early afternoons
Court times run from 6am to 2pm, Monday to Friday. Every booking is two hours.
One bill, one person
The member pays. Everyone else settles up with them however they like, and that is nothing to do with us. No cash, no front desk.
Bring guests any time
The price never changes when your group grows. Four of you or eight of you, the membership costs the same.
The building
The lobby, the change rooms and clean washrooms. Come in 15 minutes before your time and stay 15 minutes after.
The run of our equipment
Nets, balls and the rest of the kit are yours to use. You set your nets up and take them down, and the floor is yours while you are on it.
Summers off
Billing pauses in July and August while the gym fills with summer camps, and your court time is still yours in September.
Choose your court times
Every membership is your own half of the court, for two-hour sessions. Pick how many a week you want, and the more you play the less each hour costs: from $8.65 an hour each with four of you, down to $7.93 on four sessions a week.

The club has 40 court times, Monday to Friday, and will not have more. The first 10 members are Founding Members and hold $600 a month for as long as they belong. The two-day membership is $750 after that.
The court times
Forty court times, Monday to Friday. Each one is two hours on half the floor, so two groups can play at once without ever being in each other's way.
Mid-morning goes first. If the time you want is taken, tell us anyway and we will let you know the moment it opens.
Who plays here
Daytime players who want the same court, the same time, with the same people.
- Groups who lost their indoor court in Regina this year and want one that stays theirs.
- Retired and semi-retired players who would rather play at 10am than fight for a court at 7pm.
- Friends who already play together and are tired of booking week to week.
- Curling clubs, condo groups and 55-plus centres looking for somewhere to play through the winter.
There is no skill test and no grading. If you play, or you are learning, you are welcome. Bring whoever you play with.

Nine days a year we are closed
Our three-day camps take the whole gym: Christmas, February break and Easter, three days each. Your fee does not change and nothing is added on. The dates are on the HoopLife schedule as soon as they are set, so you can plan your year around them.

Questions people ask
Is there indoor pickleball in Regina?
Yes. Prairie Pickleball runs indoor courts at the HoopLife Centre, 661 Solomon Cres, Monday to Friday from 6am to 2pm. It is a private club, so you join and the court time is yours, rather than turning up and hoping there is room.
Can I just drop in for a game?
No. We used to run drop-in and we stopped. Everything here is booked by a member, which is what lets us promise you the same court at the same time every week with nobody else on it. If you want to play, send the application form and we will talk about which time suits you.
How much does a membership cost?
$600 a month for two court times a week, $850 for three and $1,100 for four, plus GST and card processing. One person is billed. Split between four players, two court times a week works out at $150 each a month, and at eight players it is $75 each.
Do the people I bring have to join too?
No, and this is the part most people ask twice about. One person is the member and is the only one we bill. Everyone they bring plays as their guest. How your group splits it up between yourselves is entirely up to you.
Where is it and is there parking?
The HoopLife Centre, 661 Solomon Cres in Regina. There is free parking right outside the door, and you come in through the main entrance with your own fob.
What are the hours?
Court times run Monday to Friday between 6am and 2pm, in two-hour blocks. Afternoons and evenings belong to the basketball programs, and that is exactly why the daytime price is what it is.
Is it a full court to ourselves?
You have half the floor, private, with two nets on it and room for eight players. The other half may have another group or an open gym on it. Nobody plays on your half while it is yours.
Who sets up the nets?
You do, and that is rather the point. The nets, balls and the rest of the kit are there for you to use, and the floor is yours while you are on it. Nobody is hovering and nobody tells you when to come off.
What if I cannot make it one week?
The court time is still yours and it is not refunded or made up. Most groups just send somebody in their place, which is allowed and easy: your guests are your choice.
Can I change my court time later?
Yes, if another one is open. Tell us what you want and we will move you the moment it comes free.
What happens in the summer?
Billing pauses in July and August while the gym is full of summer camps, and your court time is still yours when September comes round. You are not paying for months you cannot play.
Are you ever closed?
Nine days a year, for our three-day Christmas, February break and Easter camps, when the whole gym is given over to kids. Your fee does not change and the dates go on the HoopLife schedule well ahead.
What do I need to bring?
Indoor court shoes and your paddle if you have one. If you are new to it, come anyway. We have paddles and balls here.
Is there a deposit for the fob?
No deposit. Each membership gets one fob, and it is yours to look after. If it is lost there is a $100 charge, because a new one has to be made and the old one taken out of the system.
When can we come in?
Up to 15 minutes before your court time, to use the lobby, the change rooms and the washrooms. You are welcome to stay in the lobby for 15 minutes afterwards, and then the building needs to be empty and locked.
How many people can I bring?
Up to the room on your half of the court, which is about eight players. Guests never cost anything, and you are responsible for them while they are in the building.
How do I pay?
By card, monthly, through our secure checkout, or you can pay the September to June season up front if you would rather deal with it once. You can cancel with 30 days' notice.
