Let’s Play Pickleball!

Pickleball Is Taking The Nation By Storm

Seemingly coming out of nowhere, PICKLEBALL is quickly becoming the most popular intergenerational sport in America. It’s a fast, low-impact, easy to learn game that is popular with young and old alike. And the real beauty of it is that you can start enjoying the game almost immediately even if you’ve never considered yourself athletic in the past.

Bay-O-Vista is Pickleball Ready!

We have added nets and official court lines in our basketball area bringing the total number of official PICKLEBALL courts to four. However, since COURT 7 is also hooked up to our ball machine it is important that you make reservations in advance. Members can do so at the front desk. NO GEAR? NO PROBLEM! The office will loan you everything you need to get started!

 

Drop in Pickleball times:

Tuesday/Thursday  11:30-1:00
