Junior Pickle Ball (8+)

What is Pickle Ball I hear you say? 

It’s the sport, which combines elements of tennis, badminton and table tennis and has been growing in popularity across the UK and the world in recent years. Pickleball courts are springing up everywhere and giving kids a fun new activity to get involved with.

 

As well as being a great sport to play with friends and to make new ones, its also helps with hand-eye coordination, fitness, and developing motor skills. The light ball and the small paddles can be easily handled by young participants and is much easier than other racket sports like Squash or Badminton if you are beginner.

 

Try our New Junior Pickle Ball session this holiday, on Monday’s 1pm to 2pm. Sessions are coached to help juniors to learn about the sport, practice skills, play games, make friends and have fun.

  

Don’t have equipment? Not a problem. We have equipment ready and available from reception.
