What you need to know
Pickleball is a fun sport played both indoors and outdoors. Played on a court with similar dimensions to badminton, pickleball borrows many of its rules from other racquet sports such as tennis and table tennis.
It is easy for beginners to learn and is a great sport for all ages and abilities.
We offer classes to all ages and skill levels all year. Register for a program or join a drop-in class at a community centre near you.
