Get Fit for Free this 29th February with Pickleball England and Better
Fancy trying one of the fastest growing sports in the world for free this February? Want to put the leap year to good use by getting active and meeting new people?
As part of a partnership with Better, the charitable social enterprise that operates leisure centres across the UK, Pickleball England has announced that they will be offering free pickleball taster sessions this February 29th, as part of a nationwide campaign to encourage the public to get active on the extra day of the year.
A hybrid of tennis, badminton and table tennis, pickleball is a fun, exciting game for people of all ages and abilities. It is played on the same size as a badminton court, using a shorter tennis-style net. Games are in singles or doubles and players use paddles to hit a plastic ball between one another, usually playing up to 11 points.
Commenting on the campaign, Andrew Clark, Head of Sport at Better said: ‘We are seeing significant interest in Pickleball amongst our members and as a result are offering Pickleball sessions at an increasing number of the leisure centres we operate. Its popularity stems from the fact it is easy to master, fun and sociable to play. We hope this Leap Year initiative will see even more Pickleball converts take to the court.’
Kensington Leisure Centre's Pickleball Session takes place on Thursday February 29th at 12pm-1pm.
