Nashua Pickleball

Nashua Pickleball

Our northern neighbors have a great thing going both indoors and out. You'd be hard pressed to find courts this good in MA.

Four pickleball only courts outside with permanent nets (see below).

The photo is just a sampling of the many players who call Nashua home base. Doug Price, brother of our own Judy Forester is 2nd in from the right. Doug has been instrumental in getting pickleball started in Nashua.  

 I think a road trip may be necessary

Marblehead Pickleball

Spend the winter inside beginning November 5, 2016

Marty Orloff is working to secure court time at the JCC in Marblehead on Saturday mornings from 8AM-11AM

.  The start date is November 5th.  This will be a 13 week session, ending on January 28, 2017.  The cost is $75.00.  A $10.00 drop in fee may be available.   Courts may be divided by ability level.  If you are interested in this opportunity or have any feedback for Marty, please let one of us know.  Marty does need a level of interest in order to secure this court time.  

Congratulations to Bill Poehler
