Pickleball
We've added one of the fastest growing sports in America to our offerings. Pickleball is an easy to learn, fun, and naturally socially distanced sport that whether you've played it before or want to pick it up for the first time is a great time.
Pickleball combines elements of tennis, badminton, and table tennis, and is not only fun but also a great workout . This Winter we'll be playing at convenient locations including St. George Church in Lincoln Park, and downtown at the Chicago Athletic Association Hotel (CAA) in a popup Pickleball court in The Tank! The Tank (dubbed by members) was an Olympic regulation swimming pool for athletes and members of the Chicago Athletic Association Club. CAA boasts 7 restaurants and bars, including Shake Shack, and guests are welcome to bring food and drinks into the space from the hotel during games. We're offering singles and doubles options almost every day of the week.
Pickleball is played with a pickleball paddle, which is smaller than a tennis racquet but larger than a ping-pong paddle. The Pickleball is unique, with holes through it like a whiffle ball. It is played on a badminton-sized court, and we'll provide the net as well as the paddles and the balls. All you have to do is sign up, show up, and be ready to have a great time!
