Wellington Announces FREE Pickleball Clinics

Have a “pickle” ball with Wellington Parks and Recreation. The public is invited to attend FREE Pickleball Clinics for all ages. Clinics will be held on the pickleball courts located in the uncovered hockey rink inside Village Park (11700 Pierson Road). Pickleball is a sport that combines the elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong into a lively, competitive game for participants of all abilities.

Beginners clinics will be offered on the following Wednesdays: February 13th, March 13th, and April 10th. Beginners clinics run from 9:00 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. and participants will learn the rules of the game, how to keep score, how to serve, playing positions, and other fundamentals.

Intermediate clinics (some experience required) will be offered on the following Sundays: February 3rd, March 3rd, and April 7th. Intermediate clinics run from 4:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. and will focus on skills and drills, and game strategy.

Equipment is limited, so those wishing to attend are asked to bring their own paddle.

Following the clinics, attendees are invited to remain at the courts for open play until 12:00 p.m. on Wednesdays, and until 7:00 p.m. on Sundays. For additional information and Pickleball open play availability, visit www.wellingtonfl.gov/OpenPlay.
