Following the recent repainting of all the Club’s hard courts, we are delighted to announce that the new pickleball “show court” is now open. This includes a mixed blue colour scheme to more clearly differentiate the kitchen zone. Full tennis members now have access to book three pickleball courts, in addition to 7 tennis courts and a single padel court that can be booked from £10 an hour.
For pickleball, we now run three weekly club sessions every Monday evening from 7pm to 9pm, on Thursday mornings from 10.30am to 12.30pm, and a new Friday session at 5.45pm that normally includes time for a post match drink at the Cricket Club..
The pickleball sessions are available either for full tennis members or people who can join as “pickleball only members”. All courts have free LED floodlighting, with bats and balls provided by the Club.
Pickleball tennis is one of the fastest growing sports in America. The rules are simple and the game is easy for beginners, but it can develop into a fast-paced, competitive game for more advanced players as shown in this amazing pickleball video from the USA.
