Casual pickleball

A fun and exciting sport that combines elements of Badminton, Tennis and Ping Pong. Give it a go, you'll soon be hooked.

Pickleball is played on a badminton-sized court with an oversized ping pong paddle and a whiffle ball. It’s a fun, social game that is easy to take up by all ages.

It's a fast-growing sport and is enjoyed by many for having a lower impact on joints, while still being great for fitness.
