East St. Paul Pickleball

What is Pickleball?

Pickleball is a racquet sport that combines some of the characteristics of table tennis, tennis and badminton. Pickleball is a sport that was invented in the mid-1960's and has grown in popularity over the past decade. The game can be played with two, three or four players who each hold a paddle made of composite materials or wood. As in many racquet sports, the paddles are used to hit a perforated ball, similar to a wiffle ball over a net.


Information & Requirements

Players must bring their own paddle, water bottle and indoor gym shoes.

Only 24 spaces available per Group - NO Drop-ins or Sub Players permitted!

In order to reserve your spot, the Registration Fee must be PAID and a Program Registration Form must be completed. After the the maximum capacity of 24 is reached, a Waiting List will be created.


Prerequisites

These Pickleball sessions are open to players with prior knowledge of the game. Pickleball skills, rules or how to play the game are not taught during any of these sessions, so you need to know HOW TO PLAY in order to participate.
