26 ADULT PROGRAMS MELROSE What is Pickleball? Pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in the country. It is a fun and exciting (and addictive) racquet sport, which differs from tennis by utilizing a court a third the size of a tennis court. It is primarily played as a doubles sport which means each person only has to cover about ten feet of court side-to-side. The rules are few & simple and the game utilizes an underhand serve, perforated plastic ball and no-smash zone, seven feet in front of the net which allows for an easy-to-learn sport. Players range up to the 80 s as placement is more effective than power. The sport is played with wooden or composite paddles that are about twice the size of a ping pong paddle and a perforated plastic ball similar to a wiffle ball. New players generally pick up the game quickly and will be competing the first session. Pickleball_ Ages: 25+ Days: Mondays & Wednesdays Location: Foss Park Sessions: 8 Total Classes Cost: $30 for 8 classes or $5 drop in at Foss Park *NEW DAY* MONDAY EVENING Session III: Aug 20 Oct 8 (5:30pm 7:30pm) WEDNESDAY EVENING (5:30pm 7:30pm) Session III: Aug 22 Oct 10 This is a fun and social league where skill levels may vary. Participants should enjoy friendly competition, maintain a lengthy rally, and are skilled at both the soft and hard game strategies. These players play at the NVZ, get 80% of their serves in and have played competitively in other locations. Due to limited court space prior experience is required. Paddles and balls will be provided. Games typically last between minutes before rotation. Games are almost always played as doubles competition. Sneakers are required.
