Question 1

I’ve played some tennis and badminton before. Is pickleball similar? Do you think it would be easy for me to pick up?

Accepted Answer

It’s definitely an advantage if you’ve played other racquet sports before but not necessary.

Question 2

I’m a little unfit - is there a lot of running around in pickleball?

Accepted Answer

The size of the courts for doubles is fairly small so there isn’t a lot of running. But there is still some dynamic movement which is great for fitness!

Question 3

What happens if it rains will we still play?

Accepted Answer

We never cancel in advance due to bad weather forecasts as weather can change. We would normally make a call approximately half an hour before the start time if the forecast is poor.

If we have to cancel due to the weather your payment will be rolled over to your next session
