Pickleball

The Connaught is delighted to formally introduce Pickleball to the Club. 

One of the fastest growing sports in the world, Pickleball is a paddle sport combining elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. Played on a badminton-sized court with a net similar to a tennis net, it uses a perforated plastic ball and a solid-faced paddle. The game is known for being accessible, social, and easier to learn than tennis, making it popular across various age groups. 

8 permanent Pickleball courts have been marked out on the 2 bubble tennis courts giving flexibility for these courts to be used for Pickleball and Tennis. 

Adam Webb and Dan Osben, National Pickleball champions will be leading the Club’s Pickleball offering.
