Group Description :

Pickleball is a cross between badminton, tennis and table tennis. It is played on a badminton court (indoors) with a 3 foot high net, large table tennis type paddle, a hollow plastic ball and is played in doubles.


Previous racket/bat sport experience is advantageous. But, as long as you are able to move around the court then why not give us ago.

It is advisable to look at pickleball clips to assess whether this sport is for you. The following link is a good one https://youtu.be/qBxPSCXUDkw?si=tUUMTZF7m8V0pEH-

For the ability to book the correct number of courts each week, the group is run via a WhatsApp poll as well as other group news.
