2026: It's a Big Dill!
Pickleball & Cornhole Summer Camp
Our young athletes leave camp with the ideals of good sportsmanship, leadership, and citizenship. Our program promotes respectful, courteous, and fair play, attention to detail, rule-following, comprehension of game mechanics, managing emotions around victories and defeats while celebrating others, patience, hand-eye coordination, strength, flexibility, balance, coordination, posture, endurance, mobility, reflexes and anticipation, agile footwork, cooperative teamwork, working hard to improve and learn from errors, social-emotional connectivity, cognitive skills that require strategic thinking, communication, and relationship-building. We support your child in developing accurate shot placement, paddle control, consistent stroke mechanics, and targeted ball placement. Our companion sport Cornhole reinforces the dink technique, directional control, and supports our specific physical fitness and sportsmanship goals.
“I was amazed to see my 7-year-old go thru structured fundamental activities and really LEARN the game. Go Pickles and Play!”
