The rules are pretty easy, scoring you’ll soon get the hang off and it’s great fun….. lots of social sessions to join, everyone is very friendly and if you want a bit of coaching, James is fab.”

- PENDI (Pickleball England National Director impersonator)

"A group of us started playing pickleball in the spring. We have all progressed together with the great help of the coaching staff. I thought everything would close down in the winter but the club captains have organised 3 social sessions a week, including one indoors.  It is a well run group with lots of opportunities to play each other and meet new people and socialise in the tennis pavilion and cricket club cafe?"
