SOCIAL PICKLEBALL

Pickleball has commenced at Tilligerry Tennis Club on Sunday afternoons and at the Mallabula Community Centre on Wednesday evenings.  Come along and meet the coach, Aaron Matthews, who can teach you how to play.  Aaron runs two weekly sessions for casual play and all equipment is provided, i.e. tennis-style net, a paddle and a plastic whiffle ball.

  1. At the tennis courts, where two pickleball courts are available on a hard surface (Court 3). Two kits are available in the clubhouse, containing a net, 4 paddles, 2 balls and sandbags used to stabilize the net in windy weather, together with instructions to set up the net. Book Court 3 and the pin code will give you entry to the court and the clubhouse.
  2. At the Mallabula Community Centre where it is played indoors( ideal if the weather isn't agreeable).  Aaron provides equipment at the hall. Only one court is available in the hall.

The first session below is run at the tennis courts:

  • Sunday between 4.00pm – 6.00pm (during day light saving time)
  • Sunday between 3.00pm – 5.00pm (outside day light saving time)
  • COST: $6 each per session
  • All equipment provided.

The second session is run indoors at the Mallabula Community Centre:

  • Wednesday between 7.30pm – 9.30pm
  • COST: $6 each per session
  • All equipment provided.

If you are not familiar with the game, Aaron will teach you the rules and have you hitting straight away.  He describes the sport as a unique and positive sport, and many people describe it as an addiction - always looking forward to the next time they are able to get on the court.   It's no surprise how quickly the sport is gaining traction. The uniqueness of pickleball is best explained and experienced by trying it for youself.

PLEASE NOTE: If any players would like to try this infectious sport at another time,  Court 3 can be booked via Tilligerry Tennis Club website:   https://play.tennis.com.au/tilligerrytennisclub
