PICKLEBALL

Crowborough Tennis and Squash Club

PICKLEBALL 

Pickleball is one of the fastest growing sports in the World. It started life in the 60s in Seattle, US, as a garden game for families. It is is now available in Crowborough, East Sussex.

Pickleball is a fantastic racket sport, simple to play at a basic level by all ages and abilities. However, it provides the players with the opportunity to develop nuanced skills and strategies and to reach competitive levels. We already boast one player selected for the County team.

We have two outdoor, dedicated, ‘daylight hours’ Pickleball courts alongside our two Padel Courts. Internal doubles divisions, for those wishing to compete, are proving popular and we have teams playing in local leagues against other clubs.

"I never thought I'd say this, as long as I can walk I'm playing pickleball, I can't wait to get back on the court."
Andre Agassi

What Is Pickleball?

Click to Watch

Pickleball is played on a badminton sized court, indoor or out, 44 ft long by 20 ft wide. A 34” high net divides the court and the ball is a light, tennis sized ‘wiffle ball’, full of holes. One area of the court is nicknamed “ the kitchen”, a term you may already have heard when people talk pickleball. The “bats” are called Pickleball Padels and are short and light and made from either carbon fibre, fibreglass or graphite. The sport is generally a doubles game, somewhere between table tennis and tennis, and is fast, aerobic, fun and hugely addictive!
