These materials will help start a pickleball program at my school where funding for such projects is scarce. Pickleball is an exciting racquet sport and fun for all ages. There are no tennis courts or room for tennis at my school so this is a great way to introduce my students to a racquet sport. The 3 nets can be set up in my gym with ease and the 25 racquets will ensure I have enough for all students to practice with when teaching the game. Please help in any way you can.
