Pickleball Resolution: 2025 Court Maintenance Resolutions

New year, same mission: safe, consistent, great-feeling courts. You don’t need a complex plan to elevate standards in 2025—just a few small commitments that compound like crazy.

The Problem

Most maintenance drift happens gradually: a little extra solution in the bucket, pads used past their prime, “we’ll update the log later,” entry mats that quit doing their job. The result is slow-burn inconsistency members feel even if they can’t name it.

Resolution #1: Low-Moisture Daily, No Exceptions

- Make one consistent, low-moisture pass your non-negotiable baseline.

- Benefits: faster dry times, less residue, longer coating life.

- Tactic: set a recurring calendar block like a class. Cleaning is programming.

Resolution #2: Publish a Traction Standard

- One sentence posted in-club and online: “Courts deliver confident stops with no visible dust trails or sticky residue.”

- Field tests: quick slide check + towel drag logged per court, 3x/week.

- Visibility creates accountability—and trust.

Resolution #3: Protect the Entry, Protect the Court

- Three-zone entry: outside bristle mat → lobby absorbent mat → last-chance strip at gate.

- Seasonal note: winter shoe policy past the line (“court shoes only”).

- Most debris prevention = most cleaning saved.

(Stretch Goal: a weekly 10-minute “edge tour” to vacuum/wipe perimeters and under benches. Edges are where inconsistency begins.)

Takeaway

Resolutions work when they’re simple and visible. Daily low-moisture, a posted traction standard, and fortified entries will do more for safety and member confidence than any once-a-quarter hero effort.
