The rules are simple and the game is easy, fun, and friendly.

This highly addictive game is a combination of tennis, badminton and ping-pong. Using a Pickleball paddle, whiffle ball, and a low net makes it ideal for all ages and abilities.

Pickleball is offered at Rollingwood, Sacramento Central and Oroville YMCA locations (scroll down to learn more at each branch)!

Paddles and balls provided at all locations, but you’ll soon want your own because you will get hooked!

Reservations available for both single and doubles play.
