About Pickleball

Invented in 1965, pickleball has quickly gained popularity as the fastest-growing sport in the world. Known for its inclusivity and ease of play, pickleball welcomes players of all ages and abilities, offering a fun, accessible way to stay active and connect with others.

If you are looking for an intense workout, you'll be pleased to learn that "Pickleball singles is, by a decent margin, the most intense workout of any racquet sports." .

On the other hand, Pickleball doubles offers a gentler experience with a shallow learning curve, making it a great choice for complete beginners and those looking for a relaxed yet engaging sport.

Pickleball's unique blend of strategy, movement, and social connection has captured the enthusiasm of players worldwide. It's easy to pick up, rewarding to master, and always a good time. Whether for fitness, friendly competition, or just the fun of it, pickleball is the perfect way to get moving and be part of a growing community.

Be Safe

Wear a good pair of tennis court shoes (no black soles, walking, running, cross trainers, or street shoes).
Always warm up your body before playing with some easy stretches. If in doubt consult with a certified physiotherapist or doctor who can factor in any medical problems you may have.
Keep well hydrated, drink plenty of fluids before, during and after playing.
Please do not run backwards to get to a ball over your head, it is too easy to fall or collide with a wall and hurt yourself.
Carefully run forward to get that low bouncing ball so you don't fall and hurt yourself.
Always yell "BALL ON COURT" loud and clear and NEVER run onto the adjoining court to retrieve your ball; the players on that court will throw it back to you.
Never walk behind players while they are playing; wait until they are between points and let them know you want to cross behind their court.
Don't take an extra balls with you on the court. Only one can be used and strays should never be left lying on a court.
Do not take extraneous materials (bags, bottles, towels) on the court or hang them on the net posts. These items create unsafe playing area and impede visibility.
