Website Mission Membership Benefits

Mission
The purpose of the Pickleball Club is threefold: to (1) act as a central organizer, (2) minimize the barrier of entry for new players, and (3) create a sense of community around accessible physical activity.

Membership Benefits
(1) The Pickleball Club will schedule recurring court times within the Veale Recreation Center during the Winter and at nearby parks during the Summer. Additionally, the club will organize tournaments for player enjoyment for the purpose of friendly class competition.
(2) Using club funding, the Pickleball Club will purchase paddles, balls, and nets to be used by club members so they may engage in the sport without the financial barrier to entry. Additionally, the Pickleball Club will host beginner sessions to teach new players the rules of the game, help them to develop their skills, and serve as a safe space to learn.
(3) The Pickleball Club will be inclusive to all students from all grades within the School of Medicine. Through playing Pickleball, members will have the opportunity to exercise in a fun and collaborative manner. This time spent learning and playing will help to foster relationships and build a sense of community for all players involved.
