Fall Leagues 2025: Long Island City & Atlantic Terminal
A new season of leagues kicks off September 7 at Long Island City and Atlantic Terminal
Make the most of fall. Join a League, enjoy friendly matches, and grow your pickleball game.
Our Advanced Beginner Instructional League is back at LIC, now with two sessions to choose from. These leagues are perfect for players with a DUPR between 2.5 and 3.0. Enjoy competitive play plus expert coaching from CityPickle pros, who watch your matches and provide targeted feedback to help you improve week after week.
For the first time ever, CityPickle is bringing an MLP-style league to Atlantic Terminal in partnership with Major League Pickleball’s Brooklyn Pickleball Team. One person registers the team with a roster of 4–6 players, and each week four teammates rotate in to face off against another squad. This flexible format keeps lineups fresh, gets everyone involved, and rewards both teamwork and strategy. Every player also receives exclusive Brooklyn Pickleball Team swag.

Our ladder leagues strike the ideal balance between competitive edge and social fun. Each week, fifteen players take the court to compete for a higher spot in the standings. All match results are entered into DUPR, and live rankings help you track your climb. A DUPR account is required to play. Click here to link your account.
Leagues are most fun and competitive when everyone’s playing at the right level. Check the guidelines in our listings, and feel free to email us at LIC@city-pickle.com if you’re unsure which league is the best fit.
League Games: What can I expect?
- This season’s leagues follow a ladder format, where players move up or down each week based on how they play.
- We update the standings after every session, factoring in your win/loss record, point differential, and how many sessions you've played.
- Top court players each week can take advantage of our new Replay tech, recording video clips of their gameplay (LIC location only).
- Prizes awarded to the top three players at the end of the season.
- All scores from all six weeks entered into DUPR.
Subs: If you need to miss a session, please secure your own sub of a similar skill level. You can use our Sub Channel in the CityPickle Community Slack. If you cannot find a sub, please notify CityPickle at least 48 hours in advance, and we will help.
Rankings will be determined by overall record and head-to-head records. Rankings will be entered within the day after each league.
You’ll be invited to join a specific channel in our Slack Community to further connect with the other players in your league and to receive weekly league updates.
