About the experience:
This beginner-friendly experience is a great way for kids to get started with pickleball, even if they’ve never picked up a paddle before. Through play-based coaching, engaging drills and guided games, they’ll learn the fundamentals of pickleball in a fun and supportive environment while building confidence on the court.
From forehand to backhand and volleys, each lesson gets your child ready for the court. Rather than simply learning techniques, kids get plenty of opportunities to practise with the ball, helping them develop their skills naturally while staying active and engaged.
Lesson 1: Get to know the court
Kids will get familiar with the court, equipment and basic rules of the game. Through simple drills and games, they’ll practise ball control and get comfortable handling the paddle and ball.
Lesson 2: Learn the strokes & play
Kids will be introduced to essential pickleball strokes, including forehands, backhands and volleys. They’ll then put these skills into practice through guided gameplay, learning how to move around the court, keep a rally going and enjoy the game.
Everything your child needs for their first pickleball experience is provided, including paddles. This gives them the opportunity to try the sport and see if they enjoy it before getting their own.
