Pickleball is a fun sport that combines elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis. Played both indoors or outdoors on a badminton-sized court and a slightly modified tennis net. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a perforated polymer ball, over a net.
Sessions are held at Stanley Deason Leisure Centre, Wilson Avenue, Brighton on Monday evenings from 7.30-9pm.
Play restarts in September 2024 with four courts available until June 2025. We usually take a break in July and August each year.
How we play
Pickleball is played on a badminton court and generally we use four courts. Sessions are limited to 20 players who mix around and change partners and opponents every 15 mins.
Play starts each year in September with four courts available through until June. We usually take a break in July and August.
