Hi,

I've been playing Pickleball in the US for the past year and am hooked. If anyone wants to play and knows where there are courts, I'd love to join or start a group for women, men, any age. I've played with many ex-tennis players (although I'm not ) and they all seem to be transitioning to pickleball.

Looking forward to anyone else interested in getting Pickleball started or expanding it in the area!

Hi

There are no Pickleball courts in Spain,that I know of. It is not a popular sport over here. Padel Tennis (similar activity) is a national sport in Spain and is very popular around the country. I do not know if the Spanish would want two similar Sports in their country. If there is no support for it, it would not be economically viable to build special courts for this purpose.

Hope this helps

Nigel

Do you know where there are paddle ball courts and clubs that I could join? Thank you for your response.

There is Pickleball in San Pedro. I know this because an American lady was a House sitter for a neighbour and she went several times. Now where it is I dont know but it exists for sure. She found it so it must be on some social media platform.

She also met quite alot of people that way. Hope you can find it and even better, try to expand it a little. I hear so many positive things about the activity and would love to try but San Pedro is a little far for me. Definitely closer to where you are.

Just moved to the Marbella area. Been here 2 weeks. Brought my pickleball paddle with me. I’m also hooked. If we can find a court and a ball I would love to get a game going with you!
