Pickleball is one of the UK's fastest growing sports. The game is one of accuracy, tactics and strategy, rather than pure physical force. For the first two sessions (it is essential that you attend these), we'll begin with an introduction to the different strokes, the rules and scoring system and a general explanation of strategy. After that, I will attend for one hour each session to coach, but you will be able to stay on for the extra hour for open play. A few paddles are available on loan from the sports centre, but you are advised to buy your own. Balls are provided by the sports centre. Please ensure you have suitable sports footwear. After Christmas, you will be able to join the general pickleball group for the Spring term.
