Packing away the nets

A little care after the last game keeps our equipment ready for the next session.

From the club guide: How to pack away the Pickleball net correctly

The net

  1. release tension at the end of the net
  2. Gently lay the velcro tensioners back upon themselves (so the velcro doesn’t catch and tangle everything later)
  3. remove the middle support strut from its bracket
  4. Leave the side poles in the net- lift off the net and the side poles- lay on the floor
  5. Make sure the net isn’t twisted then fold the net in half lengthways (so the side poles end up together)
  6. Repeat- make sure net not twisted the fold the net back over itself again (quarter length by now)
  7. Lay the net on the floor and roll the last section of net from the poles along the remainder of the net

The frame & bag

  1. Dismantle the poles
  2. Take care with middle support pole- it has a button to release (don’t pull the top rubber section apart)
  3. Lay the end supports in the middle section of the bag, together with the middle pole sections
  4. Lay half the long poles in the side section of the bag and the other half opposite
  5. Lay the net in the middle- there should be plenty of room to zip the bag up – if not something is wrong so please check why!

There should be plenty of room to zip the bag. If there isn’t, check how everything is packed rather than forcing it shut.
