Oceanside Pickleball at Melba Bishop Recreation Center
Oceanside is home to the three time USAPA champions, Melba Bishop Pickleball Club. Pickleball is often described as a mix of ping-pong, tennis and badminton played on a mini tennis court with an oversized paddle and ball similar to a whiffle ball….it is fast, fun, addictive and can be played by people of all ages and athletic abilities!
Pickleball is played both indoors and outdoors, is very popular with active adults and it’s popularity with teenagers as well as young adults is growing.
There is nothing more fun than getting on the court with players of similar ability…..it’s common to hear “I’ll play one more” and still hear it 5 games later!
