Training

Picture

In season (Generally early November through March), we provide a variety of pickleball training opportunities, starting with beginner lessons and continuing with intermediate and advanced skills classes. We also feature special clinics and outside instructors throughout the season.

If you are new to the game of pickleball you will want to take a beginner lesson to learn the basic concepts and rules before getting out on the courts. We provide lessons starting in early November through the end of March. 

​Paddles are provided during lessons. To play outside of scheduled training you can check out paddles from the Activities Office for a limited period of time. If you discover you like pickleball, we encourage you to purchase your own paddle as soon as possible. See our "Buying a Paddle" handout for more information.

If you already play pickleball but are new to our resort, you are welcome to participate in on going training specific to your skill level rating.


We also offer a Mentoring program for players who are interested in getting a little extra help outside of training or who want to play with more advanced players.
