1881 E Del Rio Dr, Tempe AZ 85282

Free event.

Special late-morning time slot! For over 3 months we have been scheduling free neighborhood pickleball at 7:30 AM on Saturday mornings. Some neighbors have let us know that they would like to play pickleball, but 7:30 AM won't work for them. THIS event starts at 10:00 A.M. If people attend and demonstrate that there is sufficient interest in this later time slot, we can continue to schedule pickleball times later in the day.

Indoors. All skill levels welcome.

Instruction will be provided for beginners (incl. people who have never played before).

We will have enough paddles, balls for everyone. But feel free to bring your own paddle if you have one.

Pickleball is the nation's fastest-growing sport. It is a fun sport to play with people of all ages and all levels of athletic ability. Playing pickleball provides good exercise. Some of the reasons why pickleball is popular among older and less-athletic people: In pickleball, you’re hitting a plastic wiffle-like ball, so it’s less bouncy and doesn’t fly as fast through the air. And the paddle is much easier to handle because it’s shorter and lighter than a tennis racket.

This location has one full-size pickleball court and can accommodate 4 people playing simultaneously. If more people come, we will rotate them into games or take turns playing.
