Programs

Pickleball is a paddleball sport (similar to a racquet sport) that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a perforated polymer ball, much like a wiffle ball, with 26-40 round holes, over a net. We invite you to learn this fast-growing sport through our Pickleball program! Kevin and Shelly are IPTPA Level 2 Certified Teaching instructors and are excited to bring their expertise to the SAMLARC Community. Protective eye wear and tennis shoes highly recommended, and bring a water bottle!
