Tempe offers Pickleball classes and clinics, the perfect way to begin learning and loving a new sport! From beginner to advanced, youth to adults, all abilities are welcome. No equipment is necessary, as pickleballs and paddles will be provided.

Beginner classes teach game etiquette, rules, basic stroke and scoring techniques. Intermediate classes help players refine current shot selection, develop basic strategies and learn new techniques. Visit tempe.gov/play for program information.

Outdoor pickleball courts can be found at the Tempe Sports Complex, Harelson and Indian Bend parks. Indoor Drop-In Play is offered at Escalante Community Center, Kiwanis Recreation Center and North Tempe Multi-Gen Center. Days and times for indoor play varies by center.
