Sydney Tech Pickleball - luma.com/event/evt-gKowohvIYED4YIC
A relaxed weekly pickleball session for Sydney tech workers to connect, play and sweat a little. We are on courts 7 and 8 and you'll rotate courts and partners. A healthy way to wind up your Tuesday!
Many people are beginners and don't know each other yet, so don't worry about that.
If you have any questions, just message the WhatsApp group.

All paddles and balls are provided.
There are showers available at ICC, in the carpark level.

Pickleball Basic Rules & Scoring
Before your first time playing, please check out this 5-min video which covers the basic rules and scoring: youtu.be/pDDwZgepQeE
We'll use traditional scoring rules with games up to 11 (you need to win by 2 points).
Beginner Tips
Don't worry about looking silly - everyone does at the beginning.
Before you serve, make sure you say the score, otherwise you will quickly lose track of it.
Try to notice your most common mistake to improve that.
Try to get to the kitchen line quickly - don't hang back at the base line like tennis.
The serve has to be under arm 'in an upward arc' - so no downward slicing, tennis style serve or side arms.
The rule everyone forgets is that the ball has to land once on each side (two-bounce rule) before you can start volleying - so remember 'Serve and Stay' and 'Return and Run'.
General Etiquette
It's just a social game for a bit of fun, so let's keep it friendly.
After each game ends, change it up - e.g. swap your partner, swap courts etc. If anyone is waiti
