PICKLEBALL PROGRAMS
2025

Pickleball has been the fastest-growing sport in the United States for the past seven years, with 48.3 million people currently playing. The nature of the sport makes it a unique family activity where all demographics can play together and enjoy a dynamic, entertaining workout.

The popularity of this sport is well known to the Buck Hill Falls community. In 2021, we went from having no official Pickleball program to establishing two weekly clinics: Intro to Pickleball and Supervised Match Play.

In 2025, we will continue offering two weekly clinics, plus an Open Play opportunity, a Pickleball Cocktail Mixer, and the 4th Buck Hill Falls Pickleball Championship.


PICKLEBALL INTRO AND ROUND ROBIN

This is a great opportunity for players to familiarize themselves with all the fundamentals of the sport. We will study and practice the most important strategies to get you ready for match play and social play with your friends and family. The clinic will focus on the following concepts:

  • Strokes Fundamental

  • Non-volley zone or Kitchen
