Introduction to Pickleball
During the summer months, we facilitate “Introduction to Pickleball” at Mulligan’s Hollow. New players are welcome to come and learn the basics of the game. We teach the “dreaded pickleball scoring” process which can be more challenging than hitting the ball over the net!
No worries, you will have it down in no time. Come experience exercise and laughter along the way as you meet new friends and slowly become addicted.
“Introduction to Pickleball” is held at Mulligan’s Hollow every Tuesday night from 6:00- 7:30 starts May 16 through September. Pickleballs and paddles are available for use during New Player Nights.
Beware, pickleball is contagious!
Ladders
Ladder leagues are the competitive side of the club. They are typically played in a league format where you commit to playing on a designated day and time. They are skill-based, and co-ed. At this time, due to fewer indoor courts, our Ladder Leagues are held during the summer/outdoor season.
Ladder registration will be emailed in advance to current club members. They usually fill up fast.
Tournaments
The Annual US Coast Guard Festival Mixed Doubles Pickleball Tournament takes place on the Wednesday of the Coast Guard Festival at Mulligan’s Hollow. This tournament is for mixed doubles teams aged 50+ and is held as part of the festival’s Senior Day. It is limited to the first 50 teams to enter, and includes lunch, a t-shirt, snacks, and medals!
