Intro to Pickleball at The Pickle Bar: From Serving to Dinking

Have you been wanting to try pickleball but felt intimidated by crowded courts or hard-hitting players?

The course will be run by myself (Brendan) and will be held at The Pickle Bar in Summerville. In order to cover the cost of the court reservation and ensure maximum participation, there will be a $10 fee that must be paid upon registering.

We will be playing on a covered court and food/drinks can be ordered courtside. Feel free to stay for lunch afterward!

Be sure to bring the following:

• Court shoes or stiff running shoes.
• Pickleball paddle - Here's an affordable option from Walmart Try to find one that is USA Pickleball certified
• Hat or headband

If anything comes up and you will not be able to make it, please change your reservation status.

I look forward to seeing you all there!
