Pickleball by TBHS

Aoraki Secondary Schools Pickleball Festival

Lizanne Van HeerdenApril 3, 2023

held on Tuesday 28th March at the EA Networks Centre in Ashburton.

Ten of our boys took the opportunity to learn a new upcoming sport and showed some great skills at the end of the day.

Pickleball is a fun paddle sport for all ages. A cross between tennis, badminton and table tennis. It is played on a badminton doubles sized court using paddles and a hollow plastic ball with holes. The net is slightly lower than a tennis net and you can play singles or doubles. The game is easy for beginners to learn but can develop into a quick, fast paced, competitive game.

Well done to the 10 boys for having great attitudes and good sportsmanship on the day.
