Try Pickleball for mid-week drop-in fun!
Played on a badminton-sized court with special paddles and a ball slightly smaller than a wiffle ball, pickleball is a great game for all ages and abilities. The net is set slightly lower, making it more accessible for just about anyone, while still providing a challenge for more competitive players.
Our adult drop-in pickleball programs are offered Wednesdays at:
- Queen Elizabeth Park Community and Cultural Centre from 1 to 3 p.m., and
- Glen Abbey Community Centre from 6 to 8:30 p.m.
Come out and get active while you meet new people and learn a fun new sport!
