Welcome To The
Pickleball Center
Pickleball
What is Pickleball? It’s a paddle sport created for all ages and skill levels. It is a fun sport that combines many elements of tennis, badminton and ping-pong.
The rules are simple and the game is easy for beginners to learn, but can develop into a quick, fast-paced, competitive game for experienced players. It’s a great way for active adults to enjoy the outdoors, meet new people, be social and as competitive or non-competitive as you want.
Our Eight Courts are a technically advanced, 100% acrylic surface. It is a system of three layers of cushioning made from little rubber balls blended into the acrylic, laid on top making it a soft footing base.
