Pickleball

Pickleball is a cross between tennis, badminton and table tennis, played in or outdoors, on a court about a quarter the size of a tennis court, and with a slightly lower net. It is considered to be easier to learn to play and less stressful on the body, but just as competitive and fun as tennis! 

Pickleball is the fastest growing participating sport in the USA and rapidly gaining momentum around the world, including in the UK, where it is estimated there are over 30,000 players.

The Club is excited to introduce pickleball free to existing tennis members and to offer the facility to new and  experienced pickleball players, who are very welcome to become members.
