Pickleball
Join us in participating in one of the fastest growing sports in America. Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Players play as singles, doubles (same gender), or mixed doubles (one male, one female) on a 44′ x 20′. Players play with a wiffleball like ball and wooden or composite paddles.
We offer a variety of programs ranging from a beginner class for those who are new to the sport, and intermediate program for more experience players, and a pickleball league for those who wish to test their skills against other teams!
Lampeter – We run sessions of pickleball indoors January – April and September – December. We shutdown during the Summer months due to the availability of outdoor play and to reserve the space for our summer camp in the event of inclement weather.
