Curious about pickleball or ready to give it a proper try?
Our Learn to Play (LTP) Workshop is the perfect introduction to this fast-growing and fun sport!
In this 2-hour, hands-on session, you’ll stay active on the court the entire time in a small group of just 4 participants, giving you plenty of opportunity for personalized instruction and questions.
Led by experienced instructor Philip Candelaria, this clinic will guide you through the fundamentals of pickleball, including:
- Proper grip and ready position
- Basic footwork and court positioning
- Essential shots: dinks, serves, groundstrokes, and volleys
- Scoring and basic game rules
By the end of the session, you’ll be confidently playing and scoring a real doubles game. Philip will also share tips on paddle selection and how to continue progressing after the clinic.
