The women's team from the Volketswil gymnastics club has made the leap into the world of pickleball - and the enthusiasm was immediately palpable. Pickleball Corner recently held an introductory course for the women, which not only taught the participants the basics of the game, but also demonstrated the potential of this trend sport for gymnastics clubs and teams.
Benefits of Pickleball for Gymnastics Clubs
Pickleball is a winning combination because it is easy to get started and requires little training, which is particularly attractive for clubs and teams that want to offer new, varied activities alongside regular training. The sport is easy on the joints and is therefore ideal for players of all ages - from younger members to experienced women. Pickleball also promotes team spirit, improves coordination and strengthens stamina without overexerting yourself.
The introduction of pickleball not only offers the Volketswil women's team the opportunity to improve their fitness and tactical skills, but also to experience new sporting challenges together. The friendly competition and open atmosphere make the game an excellent addition to everyday club life.
The positive feedback from the participants shows that pickleball has the potential to become an integral part of the women's sports program. Gymnastics clubs benefit overall from the integration of such modern sports, as they create additional training and leisure opportunities while strengthening the community.
With the successful introduction of pickleball by Pickleball Corner, the Volketswil women's team is motivated to start a new era of club sport - ready to spread the pickleball fever and work together to further develop their game.
