If you’re in Huntsville and you have a teenager yearning to learn something new, mark your calendars! On Saturday, October 19th, the city will be hosting a Youth Pickleball Clinic at the Mark Russell Recreation Center. It’s a fantastic way for kids aged 12 to 16 to dive into the energetic world of pickleball.
Running from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., this clinic is tailored for teens who are either newcomers to the sport or looking to refine their skills. What’s really great about this program is that there are no fees to sign up; it’s completely free! This means parents can encourage their kids to be active and learn without breaking the bank.
The clinic will be led by a certified instructor from the Huntsville Pickleball Association. So participants can look forward to some top-notch coaching! The focus will be on the fundamentals: proper form, understanding the rules, and, importantly, learning good sportsmanship. After all, while competition can get fierce, it’s the camaraderie and respect for fellow players that truly makes the game enjoyable.
What’s more, participants won’t need to worry about equipment since paddles will be provided for everyone. This takes the hassle out of getting started, allowing the teens to just show up and have fun!
Now, if you’re wondering what exactly pickleball is, picture a mix of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. It’s played on a smaller court, and the rules are pretty straightforward. The ball used is lightweight, and the rackets (paddles) are solid. Whether your teen plays singles or doubles, it’s sure to be a blast with plenty of action and strategy involved.
If your teen is interested in taking part in this exciting opportunity, registration is simple. You can find the necessary signup information by visiting the Huntsville Parks & Recreation website. But don’t wait too long; spots may fill up quickly with so much local interest!
This pickleball clinic is not only a great way for your teen to learn a fun and engaging sport but also an excellent chance to meet new friends. As they swing their paddles and hit the courts, they’ll likely bond with others who share their interest in sports and fitness.
As we move into the fall season, this clinic is the perfect way to keep kids active and engaged outside as the weather cools down. Plus, with Halloween just around the corner, this could be a cool story to share with friends as they chat about their weekend adventures.
So, don’t miss out! Encourage your teen to experience the thrill of pickleball and make some great memories along the way. It’s a fabulous opportunity right here in Huntsville that combines exercise, learning, and fun.
We can’t wait to see the next generation of pickleball stars take to the court!
