**JOY CRAZY® \*\*QUIET\*\* DAISY DOUBLES PICKLEBALL**

**\* NOTE: This session will take place if at least four players register—invite a friend!**

*"Shannon is a great teacher and brings a lot of joy to learning...and her inclusive practices make it accessible to all! I highly recommend her classes!" Kriss Rita, Google Review*

**WHAT IS "QUIET" DAISY DOUBLES?**
Quiet Daisy Doubles is regular "round robin" pickleball played with "foam" pickleballs rather than plastic pickleballs. Play is just as competetive as with plastic balls, only now you can hear the score called and your partener's cues better.

We will be using the GAMMA® LIBRARIAN foam balls. Please see my Instagram, **[@JoyCrazy_](https://www.instagram.com/joycrazy_/)**, for a demonstration.

This is for anyone overstimulated by the noise of plastic pickleballs, or wishes to protect their hearing, especially those who are hard of hearing or wear a hearing aid.

This event is for "Experienced Beginning" to "Intermediate" (2.25 - 3.0) skill level players who know the rules. See **[JoyCrazy.com](https://www.joycrazy.com)** for a skill level guide.

These are welcoming, supportive sessions, full of the "I'm Learning!" spirit.

**WHERE DO WE PLAY?**
We play at the gym, inside the [Friendly House](http://www.fhpdx.org), in NW Portland, 1737 NW 26th Ave, Portland OR 97210 (Bus lines: 15, 26, 77). See parking info below.
