Last Tuesday, the EHC Winterthur juniors were able to experience a very special training session: a pickleball tournament on ice ! Under the direction of Pickleball Corner, the sport was tried out in a unique environment that provided plenty of fun and challenges.
Pickleball on Ice – An Exceptional Training
Instead of sticks and pucks, this time there were pickleball sticks and balls. On the ice, the game required not only skill, but also a lot of balance and coordination. The sports students mastered the task with great commitment and clearly enjoyed trying out a different sport for once.
Why pickleball? Pickleball is ideal for promoting reaction speed, concentration and teamwork - skills that are also essential in ice hockey. The combination of fun and sporting challenge makes pickleball an ideal addition to everyday training.
Thanks go to the EHC Winterthur youth team for this great opportunity to experience pickleball in such a creative way and to spread the word!
