Do get your name and email on our list for when we can get a block booking in the autumn. If we get enough players to make it viable the advanced block booking enables us to have, say, two courts each fortnight. HHD u3a has purchased some bats and balls for us — and we’re enticing a guy to come now and then to teach us the rules and help us hit the ball. We’re mostly beginners, so if you haven’t played before, or you’re not sure whether pickleball is for you, now’s the time to give it a try.
