What is LTP Next Steps?

You finished Learn To Play. You know the basics — the serve, the dink, the kitchen line. But walking into open play for the first time can feel like a different sport entirely.

LTP Next Steps is designed to close that gap. These sessions give you real court time in a supportive, low-pressure environment with players at your level. You’ll build confidence, develop game sense, and start playing the way pickleball is meant to be played.

 

Who Should Sign Up?

  • You’ve completed a Learn To Play program (at The Jar or elsewhere)
  • You understand basic rules, scoring, and court positioning
  • You want more reps before jumping into regular open play
  • You’re a returning player who wants to shake off the rust
No ratings required. No pressure. Just play.
 

What to Expect

Beginner Open Play

A welcoming, low-pressure environment to practice your skills. Rotate in with other beginners, learn the flow of Open Play paddle rotation, and make new friends without the fear of “messing up” a competitive game.

Guided Open Play

Coach-led sessions where you play while you learn. Get real-time feedback on your positioning and shot selection from a pro, all while playing real points. The perfect middle ground between a lesson and a match.

Do I need to be a member?
Check individual event listings for membership requirements. Some sessions are open to non-members, but members always get priority booking and better rates.
What should I bring?
Wear athletic shoes with non-marking soles. We have paddles and balls available, but feel free to bring your own if you have one you love.
Can I sign up for multiple sessions?
Absolutely. The more you play, the faster you improve. Many of our Next Steppers attend two to three sessions per week.
What happens after LTP Next Steps?
