Tadpoles
Tadpoles is a friendly, supportive, and low-pressure way for new pickleball players to learn the game, meet new people, have fun, and build confidence on the court!
Whether you’re brand new to pickleball or still getting comfortable with the basics, you’ll find a welcoming group where everyone is encouraged to learn, laugh and enjoy the game.
We ask everyone to be kind, patient, and supportive of one another. One or two experienced players will be available to answer rule questions and help players when needed—no pressure and no coaching required!
As your skills and confidence grow, you’ll be ready to spread your wings and move on to Beginner Open Play and Advanced Beginner Open Play offered at the recreation centers.
