Have you tried Pickleball yet? If not, now is your chance to give it a go!
Pickleball is Scotland’s fastest growing sport!
It is a mix between tennis, badminton and table tennis. With basic rules, anyone can play so its fun for all ages and abilities! The growing pickleball community is welcoming and encourage new players to come along and give it a try.
Why not give it ago by joining one of our social sessions or book a court at any of our sites.
Social sessions for pickleball are a chance for you to experience the new craze that is sweeping Scotland.
Social sessions are for both experienced and new players to the sport. They’re generally 90 minutes long and depending of the numbers that book, there may be some additional players which gives a chance for some rest in-between games and player rotation.
These sessions are not coached but our leisure staff have a good knowledge of the rules and you’ll normally find one of the more experience players will keep you right.
Currently, we run social sessions at three of our sites:
Loch Centre
North Berwick Sports Centre
If you’re not available at these times, you can book a court at any of our sports centres whenever there is availability.
Check out Pickleball Scotland’s page to find out how to play here.
No experience needed!
One of the reasons Pickleball is so popular is because its really easy to pick up! Although sessions are not coached, members of staff should be available to help you with the basic rules. You’ll normally find there are some experienced players in the group who will help you out – everyone’s very friendly!
We’re looking to expand our social sessions offering so keep an eye out for new sessions coming!
You can book a court at any of our sports centres, whenever there is availability. Each centre has bats and balls which you can use for the duration of your booking at no extra cost. However, the equipment is limited so if you have your own we suggest you bring it with you.
Each centre has bats and balls which will be provided for the social sessions and if you book a court outside these times, you can use the equipment for the duration of your booking at no extra cost. However, the equipment is limited so if you have your own we encourage you to bring it with you.
If you have a fitness membership with us, this class is free with your membership. You can book your space in the same way you book a fitness class – seven days in advance through the website, app or reception desk.
However, spaces within our classes are capped so we recommend booking in advance to avoid disappointment.
