I’ve recently taken up pickleball and enjoy it. I would like to practice myself. I already play 3 X per week. I live north of 466 and would like to know if there are any “practice walls” at any courts so I could practice serves etc

I have never seen a practice wall on a pickleball court, but many tennis courts have them. If empty, go for it.

I’m hoping to take a class or learn how to play. Scrolling through the calendar is pretty slow way to go at it.

Thank you for any help!

Usually all 4 court tennis courts have practice wall except Chatham. Closest one north of 466 saddlebrook or terra de sol.

You can go to http://pickleballcommunity.com/ and click on "new to pickleball". There is a list there of all the classes available through The Villages and their volunteers. I teach in two of them.

You can also go to my Facebook page "Take the Next Step Pickleball". I teach and mentor play for beginners on Friday at Chula Vista from 2 to 4. The next few dates are full but slots will open up. This is free and I also teach individuals for a fee.

There is a backboard on the tennis court at Chula BTW.
