2026 OMG Program Finalized
It’s March, and spring is just around the corner, as is the return of outdoor pickleball! Your board has been busy working with the Edwardsville Parks Dept to provide as many pickleball opportunities as possible. This year’s program runs from April 1 through October 31 and includes:
- Morning Open Play — 7a-11a M, W, F
- Spring and Summer Ladder Leagues — AM & PM on M-F
- Spring and Summer Skills & Drills
- Women’s Social Play Day
- Men’s Social Play Day
- OMG Picklenic
- OMG Christmas Party
New this year on Friday mornings starting in May we are adding a Fixed Partner Ladder League run by Dawn and Corbin Bristow. Spring leagues will start the first week of May and fees will be the same as last year. We will offer the same Skills and Drills sessions as last year. Watch for those registration announcements to be out the first or second week in April for ladder leagues and later on for Skills and Drills.
Please remember that for members to receive league registration notifications they must have the appropriate skill level rating in their profile on our website. For example, only member’s whose skill level rating is set to 3.0 will receive a registration notification for the 3.0 Men’s Ladder League. So, this would be a good time to go into your profile and make sure your skill level rating is up to date.
Also of note, except for the Holiday Party (date is tbd) our remaining social events for the year are all set.
I would also like to thank our volunteer coordinators for the year. These guys and gals put a lot of work into organizing and running the leagues, skills and drills, and social events:
Michele Martens, Norma Klingsick, Keith Schoenleber, Jim Stout, Dori White, Steve Horrell, Dawn and Corbin Bristow, Tony Malench and Bob Biarkis. Please stop them when you see them on the courts and thank them for their efforts.
