Adult Introduction to Pickleball Boot Camps
Bootcamps are designed for beginners and is a great way to get involved with one of the fastest growing sports in the country! After one session of these lessons, you will be able to go out and play pickleball anytime and anywhere. Basic rules, scoring, strokes, strategies, and overall game play is introduced. All bootcamps are taught by certified pickleball instructors. All equipment is provided. Each camp (1 per month) is at a different time and location and consists of 3 Days of instruction, with 6 total hours of instruction. *Space is limited to 10 participants per bootcamp*
Adult Level 2 Pickleball Boot Camps
The Level 2 Pickleball Bootcamp is for those who have completed an introduction to pickleball class and who have continued to play pickleball for several months.
In this class, we will review pickleball fundamentals and build on those skills to develop strategy, shot selection, and court position.
This class will also include skill drills for improving play. (note: if you took our introductory class but have not played since we recommend that you retake that introductory class, this class is for players with some experience).
