New to Pickleball?
Welcome! Here's everything you need to get started.
What is Pickleball?
Pickleball is a fun, fast-paced paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. It's played on a smaller court with a lightweight perforated ball and solid paddles. The rules are simple, the learning curve is gentle, and it's an incredible workout. It's also the fastest-growing sport in America — and for good reason.
Your First Visit
Getting started is easy — here's how.
Show Up
No experience or equipment needed. Just wear athletic shoes and comfortable clothes.
Get Set Up
We'll provide a paddle and balls. Our front desk staff will get you oriented.
Join Open Play
Jump into a beginner-friendly open play session. Our staff will help match you with the right group.
Have Fun
That's it. Most people are hooked after their first game. Welcome to the community!
Guided Open Play
The best way to start.
Our Guided Open Play sessions are specifically designed for beginners. A staff member or coach will be on-court to explain the rules, help with basic technique, and make sure everyone has a great time. It's a low-pressure, social environment where you can learn at your own pace.
Check our booking page for the next available Guided Open Play session, or just stop by during open play hours and let the front desk know you're new — we'll take care of the rest.
Equipment Basics
What you need (and what you don't).
Shoes
Clean, non-marking court shoes are required. Running shoes work in a pinch, but court shoes provide better lateral support.
Paddle
We provide rental paddles at no charge. When you're ready to buy, our Pro Shop has a demo program so you can try before you buy.
Clothing
Comfortable athletic clothing. Moisture-wicking fabrics are recommended.
Water
Stay hydrated! Bring a water bottle — we have refill stations available.
