June 2, 2021

We will be hosting outdoor pickleball for patrons of all skill levels every Thursday evening in June and July on the Peretz Park at Bridebrook basketball court. Demo paddles are available for those who do not own a one.

Are you unfamiliar with the game of pickleball? The game is best described as an oversized version of ping pong, with a few additional rules to keep things fun for everyone! The court is the same size as a badminton court, played with a hard faced paddle and wiffle ball. It can be played in singles or doubles format. To better understand the game and some of its rules, please watch the introduction video here.

Our staff will assist new players seeking to learn the game, and also allow for more advanced players to hone their skills.

Dates: Thursdays in June and July
Time: 7pm-9pm (under the lights)
Location: Peretz Park Basketball Court
Ages: 10 and Up
Fee: $3 per player, per night (please bring exact change)
Players must sign in each week before playing
