PICKLEBALL PLAY DAYS
Every Adaptive Pickleball Play Day is FREE and welcoming to all players from beginner to advanced. Volunteer coaches are on the court to help teach people how to play and share competitive playing strategies. All equipment is provided from sport chairs to paddles to balls. Interested players just need to be ready to be active and have lots of fun.
Pickleball Play Days began in 2020 with 3 events and 16 players. In 2021, we hosted 5 events with 52 players. For 2022, we will host 8 events — scroll below for upcoming Pickleball Play Days.

Common Questions & Answers
Can I attend if I do not know how to play pickleball?
Absolutely. Our volunteer coaches love teaching beginners how to play.
What do I need to bring?
Wear athletic clothing and court shoes if possible. We’ll have paddles for you to use and we’ll also have sport wheelchairs if you want to use one. Most days we’ll have bottled drinks, but it would be smart for you to bring some water.
How much movement is needed to play pickleball?
Generally, pickleball is a low impact form of exercise. You will need to move around some to hit the pickleball. We modify the rules to allow for two bounces of the ball which makes it easier for adaptive players to have longer rallies. If you are very athletic then you may play a faster, more active game.
What ages are the players?
Players of all ages are welcome to play.
