PICKLEBALL CLINICS
The fastest growing sport in America! It is a fun sport that combines many elements of tennis, badminton and ping-pong. Players use special paddles and a wiffle ball, and games take place on tennis courts with specific pickleball lines. Nets and court sizes are smaller than their tennis counterparts. The rules are easy to learn. Pickleball is a convenient way to get exercise while having fun. It is a great activity for the whole family. Bring your racket and ball. Clinics will focus on learning the soft game of dinking, how to volley, how to hit ground strokes and how to serve. Rules of the game will be reviewed as you progress thru the class. By the end of class, you will be playing a game and keeping score. Players can wear anything comfortable and appropriate for the weather.
