It's practically a no-brainer... they just play 😉

Pickleball is suitable for PUPILS:INSIDE 
from 7 years

Badminton
 Field reaches (6.10x13.40m)

Eye-hand
Coordination
 

Pickleball, like most other backstroke sports, is ideal for learning eye-hand coordination through play.

The rules are uncomplicated and easy to learn, so that the game can be played at elementary school level.

Pickleball is usually played in doubles, so that many children can play at the same time and as a team.

There are also lots of practical and very simple exercises that you can do with children. This is a quick way to fill a gym class. Ask us for tips.

Tips
 for school sports

Using a badminton net

Lower the net and save money - badminton nets can often be adjusted in height with little effort. The pickleball net is approx. 91.5 cm high at the edge and approx. 86 cm in the middle

Badminton doubles court without changing the kitchen

The Kitchen is therefore 15cm too close to the net, which is enough for playing with children.

Pickleball is played in singles and doubles on the same court size. See details at Swiss Pickleball Association.

Paddles should be inexpensive and robust

However, make sure that the paddles do not have a wooden or aluminum core, otherwise pickleball will feel similar to beach ball.

The paddles should also have a surface grip. Some cheap paddles have a very slippery surface - the balls tend to bounce in all directions with such paddles

If you have a Paddle with the inscription USA Pickleball Approved, you are certainly not doing anything wrong.

Badminton field distance

We don't have much space behind the court, here's the solution: simply shorten the court by one badminton court line, that fits well. So use the back service line from the doubles instead of the singles as the court boundary.

There is often only around 60 cm between the badminton courts, which is no problem - this is definitely enough for sports at school.
