Summer 2016 Activity Guide | 55
PICKLEBALL FOR SENIORS
(Ages 50 +)
Join the pickleball craze! Pickleball, a game that combines elements of
tennis, badminton and ping pong, is sweeping the country. Pickleball players
use wooden paddles and whiffle balls to play on a badminton-sized court with
a slightly modified tennis net. This low-impact sport is easier on the knees and
shoulders than tennis as it does not involve as much running or arm strength.
Pickleball is a recreational game that is designed to encourage an active lifestyle.
We are offering two levels of beginner classes for interested seniors who want to
play this easy-to-learn game.
