A great group of Intermediate players today and, as Tricia said, I felt like, ‘a proud mama’ with the style of play that went on, with lots of d***s and fast play at the net. Great match play team. 🙌
🏓 Sally also ran her coached session for those wanting to improve their strokes, court position and gameplay. Well done to those who played for three hours!!

🏓 Great to have 20 quality players with us last Friday and then 32 with us on Sunday, including a session for four players with Coach Sal.
If you need help on your technique -
these sessions will help you progress.
We’ve just put on an Inters/ Inters Plus session this Sunday afternoon, which wasn’t previously on, so book in the usual way. If you’ve never played with us before and want to try a session, DM us.
At our sessions you’ll receive some instruction and match play tactics@- great if you’re starting to enter tournaments.
All welcome. 🤗

📸 🎥 As I continue to forget to take any videos of our sessions, I did remember to take one photo of our Friday evening session at NTU, of our 20 players with Natalia going over who covers the middle in mixed and gender doubles (yes they are different!).
We’ve got 32 spots on Friday 12th June, 5.30-7pm, NTU Clifton Campus for an Inters and Beginners Americano. Get booked on! Only £10.50.

We’ve been nominated for the BBC Radio Nottingham Make A Difference Awards.
Being recognised for the impact we’re making through sport, community and connection means a huge amount to us. What started as people coming together to play pickleball, has grown into something really special.
A massive thank you to everyone who’s played with us, and helped build our community. This nomination belongs to all of you.
