For those who have yet to learn about pickleball, it is a fast-growing sport which is also fun, social, and friendly. It is an easy game to learn but can also be a fast-paced competitive game for more experienced players. Family members José Guerra and Alexandre Martins have already made an impact on the local pickleball scene with successes at the Vilamoura Pickleball Tournament in April 2024.

In order to mark the completion of the new courts, the Club will be holding an open day on Saturday 29th June from 10:00 to 17:00, when anyone interested can come along to try out the game. If you are new to the sport, balls and rackets will be available and someone on hand to introduce you to the basics. There will be no charge, but you are asked to register in advance and book a time slot to ensure that you do not have to wait to play. You will need to wear comfortable clothing and suitable sports footwear for moving around the courts, and make sure that you are using sun protection.

The Club will have light refreshments available and the bar will be open for drinks. You will get a warm welcome and the opportunity to make new friends.

If you would like to attend the open day or want more information about the future use of the courts, please contact Alex (+351 966 991 153) or José (+351 939 505 811) or email pickleballclubealvor@gmail.com
