Pickleball

What is Pickleball?

Pickleball is a hybrid of tennis, badminton and table tennis, pickleball is a fun, exciting game for people of all ages and abilities. It is played on the same size as a badminton court, using a shorter tennis-style net. Games are in singles or doubles and players use paddles to hit a plastic ball between one another, usually playing up to 11 points. Learn more about the sport on Pickleball England website.

Social Pickleball Sessions

Saturday 10:00-12:00

For all sessions bats and balls will be provided so just come in comfortable clothes and suitable footwear.
