Pickleball became a professional sport back in 2019, which is also the same year we started offering the sport here at our resorts. Since then it has continued to grow in popularity, and is now considered one of the top up and coming sports in the country. Come on down to our Pickleball courts during your next break and try it out for yourself.
What is Pickleball?
The LTA describe Pickleball as bringing together the best elements of tennis, badminton and table tennis. It is a fun and exciting game that is suitable for all ages and levels of ability.
Pickleball is played on a badminton sized court, but uses a net more similar in style to a tennis net. Players use paddles to hit a plastic ball between each other. The game can be enjoyed as either singles or doubles.
