Pickleball has finally come to Bayside in Melbourne and people of all ages and sporting backgrounds are coming out in droves to play the USA’s and Australia’s fastest-growing sport – pickleball. What type of name for a sport is that anyway?
Bayside’s first official pickleball club with dedicated pickleball courts has been established at Beaumaris Lawn Tennis Club and will be known as Beaumaris Pickleball Club @ BLTC. The Melbourne pickleball community is so excited to be able to play pickleball outdoors on properly surfaced and line-marked pickleball courts.
The newly formed and growing Bayside pickleball community has come out in huge numbers to the recent “Bayside Pickleball Come and Try Days, with over 110 first-time participants turning out over three weeks in late August/early September. Everyone said they had fun and really enjoyed playing pickleball, and some said they were addicted after just one hit.
