SENIOR PICKLEBALL CLINIC

Learn the game on new Academy Park courts

Williamson County Parks and Recreation Department is pleased to announce a senior pickleball clinic (ages 50+) on the new outdoor courts at the Williamson County Enrichment Center at Academy Park Gym, located at 110 Everbright Ave. This clinic will be for seniors that are beginners only and taught by an experienced pickleball player.

Pickleball is a racquet sport that combines elements of badminton, tennis, and table tennis. It is estimated that 2 million Americans play the game, and its popularity is growing, especially among seniors. Two-thirds of all pickleball players are over the age of 60, and it is a popular event with local seniors as well as with participants in the Tennessee Senior Olympics.

Registration is now open for a September session, meeting Tuesdays and Thursdays, September 19, 21, 26, and 28 from 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. There is a $15 fee for the four-session clinic. Register now at www.wcparksandrec.com, #10016. Space is limited.
