If more pickleball courts are going to be converted from existing tennis courts, let them be on the back courts where 4 courts of pickleball have ALREADY been established. Tennis courts and tennis players who have been dedicated members for DECADES , should not be compromised on the front courts where we have played and competed in leagues for decades. We don’t know how long pickleball will be around…but we DO KNOW that tennis is a game of skill, effort, practice, learning that takes many ears to develop. Please don’t disrespect the game of tennis by a new fad gaining attention. Please keep The integrity of our tennis at Braemar Country Club, still the BEST TENNIS FACILITY in the San Fernando Valley..if not ALL of So. Cal. !!!

I totally agree! The associated noise caused by hitting with a wood paddle is very distracting to me as a tennis player. Hearing impaired tennis players certainly do not benefit from the noise this game makes.

Keep court one a tennis court. It’s hard to book a tennis court because they get filled quickly so making a picket court would just make it harder. Keep court one a tennis court not a pickle ball court!

Say no to pickle ball on court 1 this is not just 1 court this is COURT 1 which covers the Deuce Deck and at some point there are 12 to 16 people on the court which disrupts the tennis

This idea is equivalent to turning part of the golf course into a volleyball facility.

Court 1 should be maintained for tennis members. We have remained at Braemar because of the tennis offering

there are two courts which face NS that no tennis members want to use, turn those into pickleball courts instead. The noise pickleball makes is not relaxing and by giving away one court you've ruined 8.

This is a terrible idea and an obvious greedy move to not pay to convert the court back to tennis. THIS IS A TENNIS CLUB with pickleball options. We will have diminished standing as a USTA site.

The court #1 fence lining fabric (backside) is a serious distraction on court #2 and should be removed.

I’m against pickle ball on court 1 or any court 1-7

Picket ball is extremely loud and will distract tennis members who play tennis on all courts in the proximity if court one. If you want to have picket ball courts start of the east west tennis courts numbers 17 and 18.

Definitely not. Loss of another court and the noise factor are negatives.
