Racquet Sports

This term we will be focusing on racquet sports. This will include a combination of table tennis, pickleball, padel, squash, badminton and tennis. We will be playing at a variety of different venues during the double block on a Wednesday. These include Pickleball & Badminton at Parakiore, Padel at Wilding Park, Squash at Christchurch Squash Club and Tennis at Hagley Park.

Not heard of padel before? It is a hybrid of tennis and squash and is played on an enclosed court with glass and mesh walls that allow the ball to bounce off them.
