Pee Wee Pickleball Lessons Join us for a fun, active class where little ones can learn the basics of pickleball! This class is perfect for tiny players who have never played pickleball before or are just starting out.

With easy games and playful activities, children will practice things like swinging, bouncing, and hitting the ball over a low net. We’ll also learn how to play together as a team and take turns in a fun, friendly way! The class will be full of games, colorful balls, and lots of smiles. Age-appropriate equipment will be provided. Bring a labeled water bottle. No class July 2.
