55+ Pickleball Drop-In Play
Donleigh, Columbia, MD 21046, USA
Description
Pickleball is a paddleball sport that combines elements of badminton, table tennis, and tennis. Two or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a perforated polymer ball, much like a whiffle ball, with 20-40 round holes, over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports: the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules somewhat similar too tennis with several modifications. Participants bring their own paddle and balls. Atholton Park has two courts lined and ready for pickleball play. This is a drop in and play; no instruction. Teams rotate play during this two-hour session. For more information contact sripley@howardcountymd.gov or 410-313-7281.
