Pickleball

Get hooked on this up-and-coming sport

Please note, that we have SET pickleball hours. Any pickleball to be played during other “open gym” hours will be at the sole discretion of the Director of Athletics or the gym monitor on duty. Please check in with them. Thank you!

Pickleball is a sport played with wooden/plastic paddles and a small, plastic baseball similar to a Wiffle Ball. It's a cross between ping-pong and tennis - played on a badminton court with the net placed lower to the ground (approx. 34 inches). Pickleball can be played as a singles or doubles match. At our Y, we do drop in open play, where people play doubles matches. We have courts designated for beginners, intermediate, and more advanced players. We supply some balls and paddles. It is recommended that you please bring your own.
