Join us at Lake Lynn Community Center for our Pickleball Clinic offerings!
Two clinics will be offered per day-one for beginner/new players only and one for regular/experienced players only. Prospective students are requested and strongly encouraged to register for only one level of classes appropriate to their current level of play, as clinics will be tailored to that skill level only. To provide the best experience possible for students, clinics are open to a maximum of 8 players.
These classes are ideally suited to those who want a competent introduction to the game. Our instructor, Bruce Blankenhorn, will introduce the equipment, the court, the rules and protocol, the positions, the strokes, and the scorekeeping. Each class includes a demonstration and explanation, then student practice, then playing actual games.
