Planning clue

Which nights may be affected?

The published West Des Moines summer schedule places men’s and coed divisions on Tuesday, women’s divisions on Wednesday, and coed divisions on Thursday. This does not mean every Paddle Pals member is unavailable; it simply helps the organizing team identify likely conflicts.

Voluntary member board

Who is currently playing in a league?

Only information approved by each member will be displayed publicly. Members may choose a first name and initial, initials only, or organizer-only planning.

👥

Waiting for member submissions

No member league schedule has been published yet. Submit the form to help the organizing team understand likely conflicts.

Share league availability
How the board is updated: Netlify stores the form response privately. The organizing team reviews the privacy choice, then manually adds approved information to this page in a future website update.

For organizers

Use availability without excluding anyone

  • Look for patterns rather than assuming every league player is unavailable.
  • Keep Friday and Sunday options when midweek leagues are busiest.
  • Ask members to update the form when their season ends or schedule changes.
  • Do not publish full names, team names, or schedules without permission.
