Any SaddleBrooke resident is welcome to attend this introductory lesson.
At the end of the intro lesson, participants will know the basics of the game and be encouraged to join the SaddleBrooke Pickleball Association (SPA) and continue with the Assisted Play program.
The only prerequisite or “must have” for the intro lesson is an interest in learning a new sport and the desire to have fun and do your personal best.
