Ready To Have a Ball With the Fastest Growing Sport in the US?
Pickleball is the perfect blend of badminton, tennis, and table tennis, making it an exciting and accessible activity for players of all ages and skill levels.
Whether you’re a seasoned racquet pro or trying pickleball for the first time, you’re sure to have a blast on the court. Not only do we offer open play times for anyone to jump into a game and play together; we’ve got intro clinics designed for beginners to learn the basic rules and strategies of the game, as well as lessons with our pickleball pro.
Don’t just take our word for it — see for yourself why pickleball is taking the nation by storm! Grab your paddle, gather some friends, and let’s hit the pickleball courts!
