Pickelball at Colborne
The game — a combination of tennis, badminton, racquetball and table tennis. The Pickleball Association says over 40 million are playing in North America. Pickleball is a racket or paddle sport in which two players (singles) or four players (doubles) use a smooth-faced paddle to hit a perforated, hollow plastic ball over a 34-inch-high (0.86 m) net until one side is unable to return the ball or commits a rule infraction. Pickleball is played indoors and outdoors.
Sessions are 2 hours long, a maximum of 6 or 7 persons are booked for every Session, and we ask a $5 donation for each Session per person. Sessions are played as doubles.
The 7 2-hour Sessions are available at the following times:

What to bring? Court shoes or clean running shoes are required, street shoes are not permitted. You will need to make a change of shoes before you play.

We have 6 extra racquets that can be borrowed.
