Pickleball is more than a sport—it’s a fun, accessible way for kids to learn essential life skills while staying active. At our OV Community Center sessions, your child will:

• Build Character: Learn respect, confidence, and resilience in a supportive environment.

• Practice Teamwork: Communicate, collaborate, and celebrate with others on and off the court.

• Gain Conflict Resolution Skills: Handle disagreements with positivity and respect.

• Develop Discipline: Strengthen focus, determination, and follow-through.

All sessions are led by IVP-cleared, SafeSport-informed coaches who understand youth development.

• Who: Kids in grades 2–12 (beginners welcome)

• When: Mondays from 4:00–6:00 PM
