What’s Up with WhatsApp?
Congratulations! You’ve just become a member of Redwood Pickleball Club Sonoma County. Now what?
One of the most important tools to maximize the benefits of Club membership is WhatsApp. Every new member receives an invitation to join our WhatsApp group Chat. You need to have the WhatsApp app on your cellphone in order to accept the invitation. We use this app for topics of general interest such as:
Pickleball tournaments near and far
Pickleball Gear
Pickleball Training Tips
Social events
Member Birthdays
Humor
Club Announcements in between Newsletters
What you won’t find here are scheduling or game requests. These are handled through the Pickleheads app.
As a courtesy to the other Club members, we ask that you take conversations of limited interest offline to another WhatsApp Chat or to text messages.
Keep in mind that each posting is scheduled to “disappear” seven days after posting. So if there is a link or other information that you think may be of future interest to you, take the appropriate action: Save, Keep, Copy, Forward, etc. Your options may vary based on your Permissions.
Admittedly, at times, the number of postings can seem overwhelming and you may be tempted to leave the Chat or delete the app. Resist! WhatsApp is the heart and soul of our club off the court.
