CORPUS CHRISTI – The simple game rules make Pickleball easy to learn and play at any age. The Corpus Christi Parks & Recreation Department will offer its Pickleball program for men and women ages 18 and up this fall! This indoor sport will be held Tuesday through Thursday from 9am–11am, beginning on September 8, 2020, at the Corpus Christi Gym, 3202 Cabaniss Parkway. Pickleball is a fun way to get active!

Pickleball is a fun sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis.  The game is played using paddles volleying a plastic ball with holes, like a whiffle ball but slightly smaller, on a badminton-sized court with a modified tennis net. Games can be set up for singles or doubles.
