Your First Time
What Happens When You Arrive.
Nobody expects you to know anyone or know the rules. Here's exactly how it goes.
Come To Sorauren
Sorauren Park, 50 Wabash Ave. Head for the courts and the players. That's us.
Say It's Your First Time
Tell a GANP leader or volunteer you're new. That's all it takes.
Borrow A Paddle And Play
Grab a loaner paddle if you need one. We'll explain the rotation and get you into a game.
Bring shoes and water. That's it.
Before You Play
You Don't Need Experience, Gear, Or A Team.
"I'm Not Good Enough"
Every level is welcome here. Many of our players started as beginners or came back after years away. We don't care if you're good. We care that you're here.
"I Don't Know Anyone"
Nobody does at first. A GANP volunteer helps newcomers understand the rotation and get into a game.
"I Can't Commit"
No commitment. No sign-up for Saturdays. Show up when you can, leave when you want.
Meet The GANPers.
Beginners, regulars, families, older adults and people returning after years away all play here.
Come for the game. Meet the people who play here.
We Bring The Gear
Set Up Before You Show Up.
Nets, balls and loaner paddles are set up before the first game at 10am. You just bring shoes and water.

Can children participate?
Yes, when the activity suits them, but they must stay with a parent, guardian or responsible adult for the whole session. GANP Saturdays are not a supervised drop-off program.
