Will pickleball make its debut at Pujols Senior Sport Health (P3S)? This discipline combines elements of tennis, badminton and ping-pong. It is a sport that is played with a full racket and a perforated plastic ball, on a badminton court, above a slightly modified tennis net. Easy, therefore, to set up both inside and outside.
Friday February 23 in the afternoon, Jean-Jacques Brun, the president of the association, invited his members to discover this new game, which already has more than 40 million of practitioners in North America (United States and Canada). “If demand arises after this initiation, we will develop it,” indicates Jean-Jacques Brun.
The activity apparently appealed to the thirty or so P3S members present. It must be said that once the bounce of the ball has been mastered, this first cousin of padel can appeal to those who no longer have the physique to play tennis and who do not excite ping-pong. not.
Towards an agreement?
Friday, Thierry Planche, the president of the Tennis Club of Penne-d’Agenais, and Pierre-Yves Bonnet, of Padel de Villeneuve, led this discovery session at the Alain-Minoun sports hall . If agreement with the Pujols Tennis Club was reached, pickle ball could benefit from the racket room. “Because this discipline can be played on a tennis court which can be divided into four pickle-ball courts,” specifies Jean-Jacques Brun.
This new activity, if it received the approval of the association’s members, would be added to the thirteen already offered to the more than 200 members of Pujols Sport senior santé. The association continues to diversify its offering, as it did not so long ago with electrically assisted cycling and line dancing.
