Pickleball

What is Pickleball?

Pickleball is a paddleball sport played with a paddle and a plastic, perforated “wiffle” ball. The game melds attributes of badminton, table tennis and court tennis leading to a game of tactics, patience and easy to learn strokes.

Pickleball is a straightforward game with minimal physical requirements which makes it an attractive game to almost any age and ability!

Play pickleball by serving the wiffle underhanded to the cross-court service area. The ball must bounce once on either side of the net before a volley can begin.

Continue a volley until one of the teams hits the ball out of bounds, into the net or causes the ball to bounce twice on their side. Win by scoring 11 points, or if each side reaches 10 points, win by getting two points ahead.
