The Chatham-Kent Pickleball Club is a not for profit organization to support active lifestyle for all ages. It currently has a membership of 120+ members and conducts lessons, league play, clinics and tournaments throughout the year.

Pickleball is a sport played on a badminton size court with paddles, a hollow ball and net. It is a fun way to get a moderate cardio workout in a social setting.
