Sundays 1:30pm (1hr for 4-6 people)

Two things make us unique from normal pickleball- we are social and recreational (we do not take the sport that seriously). I have played and ran Pickleball for 8 years and I have found 2 types of players:

1st type- is 'best practices' players who go to the net (all 4 players are near each other- volleying back and forth); that is the 'best' way to play, for sure- if your goal is to win.

2nd type- of player likes 'baseline' play or doing 'whatever comes to mind' getting the ball back (we are not using 'best practices' meaning we are not pushing up close to the net every point... we just play). This 2nd type of play- is great for brand new players and for people who are more social and recreational and cannot take Pickleball that serious.

We anticipate this: new players who join this group- 40% of you will 'stay' with us and 60% will find their way (over time) to more normal or serious pickleball groups. We might be your introduction to the sport.

We will be playing on Saturdays or Sundays at 1:30pm (our listing, for each Saturday/or Sunday- will be shown on this Meetup).

If you have never played, text me (Mikal Duilio 503-380-4539) so I can send you a tiny bit of info- so you have an understanding of the game but it is fairly easy to learn AT our event. All you need is athletic shoes, as we provide paddles and the balls.
