Welcome to the Fastest-Growing Sport in the UK!

Pickleball is taking the country by storm, and we’re delighted to offer this exciting racket sport at Bledlow Ridge Tennis Club. Whether you’re a seasoned tennis player, a complete pickleball beginner, or just looking for a fun, social way to stay active, pickleball is for you.

What is Pickleball?

Pickleball blends the best of tennis, badminton, and table tennis. Played on a court the same size is as a doubles badminton court with paddles (bats) and a perforated ball, it’s easy to learn, suitable for all ages, and offers a fantastic mix of skill, strategy, and laughter.

Why Play Pickleball?

• Inclusive & Accessible: Welcoming to all skill levels and ages.
• Social & Fun: Meet new friends and enjoy friendly competition.
• Low Impact: The smaller court and lighter paddles makes pickleball a less physically demanding alternative to tennis, ideal for those seeking the excitment of a racket sport with less impact on the body and joints.
• Recreational Play: Most players play pickleball with a doubles partner, although there is a variation of the game for singles play. Pickleball is an ideal recreational sport for groups of friends and families looking to do a fun activity together without having to dig deep into the pockets.
• Health Benefits: Playing pickleball over time will improve your flexibility and balance, helping to build muscle around joints and improving reaction times.
