What is Pickleball? One of the fastest growing sports in the nation that combines elements of tennis, ping-pong, and badminton, played with a paddle and more durable whiffle ball. The game is played with two or four players on indoor or outdoor courts of badminton size, or a slightly modified tennis court, according to officials.

Indoor Pickleball play is included with PARA membership or a daily user fee applies. Outdoor Pickleball play is free to the public!

Seniors/active adults may be eligible for insurance based membership. You can check your benefit eligibility through the following links or PARA’s Center staff is happy to assist you:
