Supporting seniors who play pickleball to improve their game & maximise on their enjoyment of the sport.
We all want to improve. This makes things more fun whether you are a recreational player or like to compete. Read the blogs, watch the videos, listen to the podcasts, choose from a library of resources - you choose how you want to learn.
The Roadmap starts from a total beginner who hasn't yet stepped onto the court, through to Beginner (2.0), then Novice (2.5), then Low Intermediate (3.0) and then High Intermediate (3.5). Join it at whatever level you are and use the resources relevant to you.
The Community Forum is where you exchange stories, tips and advice with all the other members. You will get a lot of help and support (and fun!) from your fellow seniorpicklers.
You will improve your game.
You will get fitter and healthier.
You will join an amazing community.
You will have more fun!
“In November 2023 I went to play pickleball for the first time. I had had some niggly tennis injuries on my knee, calf and Achilles heel and was cheesed off that I could not play tennis properly. Talking to my tennis buddy Sir John, he mentioned that he’d just started playing this weird, funny sport that was a bit like tennis and would I like to come along and check it out one day.
I have been playing tennis for over 50 years, so the court seemed quite familiar (but smaller!) and I felt instantly at home. It was a revelation to be able to play a highly competitive game without the strain that I was used to. Although I am a pretty good tennis player, the ‘youngsters’ were just blowing me off the tennis court with their power! I soon found that in pickleball older players were pretty much equal to the younger players. After playing twice, I thought it would be a good idea to share my love for this strange new sport with my tennis buddies and wider friends – so started the Senior Pickleball Tips Facebook group. I posted a few videos from YouTube, enthused about the game and shared my thoughts about all things pickleball and within six months it grew to 65,000 members from 44 countries!!!
I even persuaded my brother Terry (who lives near Noosa in Queensland, Australia) to start playing and he has found ‘his people’ who already feel like life-long friends. Terry is a great guy and, together with three fantastic US-based moderators, supports me with the Facebook group.
There is obviously a massive audience out there – older people (we define it as 50+) who play pickleball and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! The group shares EVERYTHING about the sport.
So, then Terry and I decided to expand this community and start this website that will (eventually) be the ‘go to’ place for all things Senior Pickleball for Beginners, Novices and Intermediate players (2.0-3.5).
So, you are welcome – and we’d really like you to join us here.
So, remember – ‘Paddle up, stay safe and have fun!’
