Pickleball players always want to improve their skills. And our 700 plus SaddleBrooke Pickleball Association (SPA) members are no exception. We are fortunate that a team of volunteers within our organization willingly take time to help fellow players and teach lessons at particular skill levels. This is a rarity among pickleball clubs. We take individuals interested in learning this fabulous sport from introductory lessons through mid-level skill lessons. Each year, we try to bring in higher level skilled and nationally known players to conduct pickleball clinics and work with select individuals.
The SaddleBrooke Pickleball Association (SPA) is pleased to announce that our skill level improvement programs will re-start this fall. After a summer hiatus, the instructors are happy to begin again, helping those who want to improve their skills, do so. All skills lessons will take place at the Ridgeview courts.
Introductory lessons have begun and will continue throughout the fall. For more information, please contact Shawne Cryderman at 818-2690 or [email protected].
