After you are done checking out the Maple Leaf website and all of our fun activities.​
​
 In the  Training Section you will find New to Pickleball ​
Look for the Prerequisite Pickleball Intro Session 1 Virtual Lesson and Quiz
​
In an effort to get the most of our time on the court we have compiled some great videos and a couple of quick guides so that when we get on the courts you will have a basic understanding of the game.  Do not fret, we will most likely touch on everything you read.  Once we get together the videos and rules will make more sense.

We will have two clinics a week, two sessions in each clinic.  Totaling 3 hours on the courts and probably 30-45 minutes before you get on the courts.  Please pay attention to the Getting Ready for Pickleball Guide with attention to shoes, hydration, and your own health deficits which may limit what you can do.  The quiz is designed just so you can review.  You can look at the incorrect questions and we will show you several places where you can find the correct answers.  We are hoping the extra time learning off the court will give us a little more time getting you out and playing quicker. 

One last warning!  Be careful, the game is addictive and be prepared to HAVE FUN!
