Casual and Social Hits

Pickleball is a cross between tennis, badminton and table tennis.  The game is played on a surface the size of a badminton court with a lower tennis-style net. A paddle (bigger than a table tennis paddle) and pickleball ball are used.

Pickleball can be played with one person on each side of the net (singles) or two people on each side of the net (doubles).

Pickleball offers health benefits because it keeps you physically active. It is appropriate for players of all ages and levels. Come along to the casual session – social hit and connect with others, or bring a friend, partner, children, grandparent and enjoy a social and fun game!
