Pickleball
Pickleball is a fun game that’s rising in popularity, so we brought it to the J! This game is a lot like tennis, both sports use a racket or paddle to hit the ball over a net. However, pickleball is considered the less strenuous and less intense version of the two. It is a combination of several classic games – badminton, tennis, and table tennis.
We have 4 full-sized recreational outdoor pickleball courts on the Karl Community Campus.
