Venues across Gloucestershire
Mangotsfield, Bristol
Alveston
A secondary school in Alveston, near Thornbury, where Bristol Pickleball Club holds its advanced Tuesday session. Come when your third-shot drop is reliable; or at least when you can say 'third-shot drop' with a straight face.
Dursley
A Dursley school whose sports hall hosts Bristol Pickleball Club's Sunday morning mixed-ability play, which makes the club's 'Bristol' something of a generous description. Gloucestershire players won't complain.
Chalford, Stroud
Four floodlit pickleball courts in the Stroud valleys, alongside the tennis, and six socials a week that welcome all comers. The wheelchair-accessible pavilion is a thoughtful touch too.
Coaching
Brockworth, Gloucester
Four indoor pickleball courts at David Lloyd's Gloucester club, where members also run community club matches. One of the best-equipped venues in Gloucestershire.
Newent
A small leisure centre in Newent offering pickleball alongside badminton and indoor tennis, with a free car park. Rural Gloucestershire's racket sports, neatly gathered.

Gloucester's big tennis and sports park, where Gloucester Phoenix Pickleball Club runs intro, beginner, improver and intermediate sessions in partnership with the centre. The on-site shop even stocks pickleball kit.
Beginner friendly Coaching
