Pickleball is a ‘racquet and ball’ sport with a perfect balance of court dimensions, rules, and equipment to afford all skill levels and age groups enjoyment on the court. It has become wildly popular overseas and now Jones Tennis Co. hosts a social competition that all ages are welcome to attend at Kiama High School.

The weekly meeting in Kiama is organised by local tennis coach Daniel Jones from Jones Tennis Co. He is passionate about delivering group classes and social events, with a primary focus on developing skills for life. He has been actively involved in the sport in the area, most recently with the adaptive tennis day held recently in Gerringong. 

The meeting has been running since November 2023 and has rapidly grown in number since the beginning. The sport is akin to a mixture of table tennis and tennis and is very easy to pick up. New members pick it up quickly as it is an equaliser of skills, making it accessible for all ages and skill levels. 

The group is nearly at capacity it has been so successful, but there is always room for new members to come along on Tuesdays and play a game or two and meet some new people. You can email Daniel for more details at [email protected].
