IMPORTANT: Note the location. This pickleball session will be held in the Del Rio Building (which as 1 court) rather than the regular location which has 3 courts.

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 than four people come, we will rotate them into games or take turns playing. This means you may not be able to play constantly, but many people enjoy playing in this location with only one court because they enjoy taking breaks and socializing with neighbors while they wait to play in the next game.
