Pickleball is the fastest growing community game in the world. It is a game played on a badminton court with nets at similar height as tennis, using "paddle bats" rather than racquets. No special clothing is required just comfortable games wear such as track suit bottoms or leggings and trainers. We have a court booked at Perdiswell every Monday 1330hrs-1430hrs.
Pickleball is a game for everyone, no previous ball skills needed just a fun game that provide a fitness opportunity, although as skills grow competitiveness will probably grow with it. The following links will give members a vision of the game.
