About IAPA
Isle Area Pickleball Association
Where we play
Isle Area Pickleball has 8 outdoor individual pickleball courts near the Isle High School located at 610 Mille Lacs Avenue, Isle, Minn. These were built in 2024 and are beautiful first-class courts!
We are now playing outdoors at the courts most days of the week. Scheduled times can be found usingPlaytime Scheduler. (https://playtimescheduler.com) or use the link below to get the app on your smart phone. You will need to register first and then find “Isle” to sign up to play. However, it’s not mandatory to use this system, and you can show up at the courts to play most days. Typical play dates are Tuesday and Thursday mornings starting around 8:30 am; and Monday evenings around 6 pm. Weekends have games schedule pretty steadily.
We do have a Women’s League on Thursday nights at 6 pm (both summer and winter) and the Men’s League is on Wednesday nights in the summer at 6 pm.
In colder weather, we play at the IREC which is located at 730 5th Ave. S., Isle, Minn. You need to be a member, but you can typically enter on the west side of the building or go to the back parking lot and there’s a back door by the dumpster that has a bell. The cost to play at the IREC is $5
