Pickleball Monday Evenings -San Pedro Style!

Wildly popular Pickleball is played with doubles, is socially friendly & inexpensive. The size of the court (about 1/3 the size of a tennis court) & use of a hard whiffle ball (less bounce) & short handle paddle make the game physically manageable & fun to play! Free to play! We set up at 5pm, warm up and start playing at 5:30pm. You need to RSVP to play. Questions text me: 310-809-2011.

Our players are quickly becomming intermediate level so you will be expected to know the basics & be warmed up before playing.

Please arrive early & warm up on the wooden backboard to get comfortable connecting your paddle to the wiffle ball. You should be able to consistently return the ball to the backboard before entering a game. This game moves fast, so focus, agility, accuracy & speed matter!

Please familiarize yourself with the basics of the game before playing with us. Go to Youtube.com and type in "The Definitive Beginners Resource for Pickleball". Before playing with us you should know the following basics:

• How & where to correctly serve the ball
• When you can be inside the kitchen or non-volley zone
• When & why you need to play at the non-volley zone line.
• Scoring
• Why you never ever run backwards in Pickleball.

What to bring: Water, sunscreen, hat, court shoes, pickleball paddle, spirit of fun!
