PICKLEBALL is a paddle sport you can learn in minutes and play for a lifetime.
It brings together elements of tennis, badminton, and ping pong to create a sport that’s fun for all ages and skill levels, but gets fast-paced and exhilarating at competitive levels.
How is pickleball different to other net sports?
It’s easier to pick up than many net sports
It’s lower impact than tennis, so it’s easier on the body
It focuses on quick reflexes and aiming, rather than spiking the ball, powerful serves, or running speed
These differences open pickleball up to a greater range of players. Whether you’ve been playing tennis your whole life, or you’re walking onto a court for the first time; whether you’re young, old, or in between; whether you’re strategic and competitive, or just want to get involved in something fun, social, or active… PICKLEBALL is for you.
Brand new to Pickleball?
We highly recommend you attend one of our Come & Try Sessions for a thorough introduction to the sport; here you will learn the rules, court positioning, how to hold your paddle, and our club style of play. Our hosts can then suggest further sessions for you based on your ability.
These Come & Try sessions are usually held each Friday at Shaw Park (Wooloowin), each Saturday at Aspley East, each Tuesday at The Gap, each Sunday at Mt Gravatt, weekly at Rocklea and Wakerley, or monthly at Balmoral on a Saturday. We also hold two sessions on a Saturday at Albion (booked via Meetup app).
