Open Gym Pickleball

Pickleball combines tennis, badminton and ping pong for a fun game. Pickleball is played on a badminton court with the net lowered to 34 inches at the center. It is played with a perforated plastic baseball similar to a wiffle ball and composite paddles. The game is easy for beginners to learn, but can develop into a quick, fast-paced, competitive game for experienced players.

Schedules are subject to change due to holidays, maintenance and/or availability. Held in the Pavilion Fieldhouse Gym with a minimum of 1 court available. All participants of open gym must check in with a valid driver’s license and/or identification.
