The Racket Club Offers Open Pickleball Court Time

RSVP and bring a friend or meet new friends on the court!

The Racket Club, a Crystal Lake Park District facility, is offering a new twist on racquet sports: Pickleball! Pickleball is similar to badminton and tennis. It involves playing on a court with the same dimensions as a badminton court with a hard paddle and perforated, plastic ball (whiffleball). It takes very little instruction with most people able to play a regular game on their first day. Please wear your tennis shoes.
Pickleball (RSVP basis), each visit is $4 for members of The Racket Club and $5 for non-members. Space is limited, so please RSVP to 847-658-5688 to reserve your spot. Play is generally at an intermediate level, but newcomers are welcome to give it a try. Equipment is provided for those who need it
Mondays, 2-3:30 pm
Wednesdays, Noon-1:30 pm
Fridays, 7:30-9 am
Saturday, 3-5 pm

The Racket Club is located at 9101 South Route 31 (one mile south of Rakow Road) in Algonquin, Illinois 60102. Please call Rob Laue, Club Manager, with questions at 847-658-5688.
