Doubles Strategy Coaching
We are excited to provide a 90 minute doubles strategy coaching session for all participants of the festival. Courts will be pre-organised into ability groups for the purpose of this coaching session. Coaching will be provided by level 2 RPPK European qualified Pickleball coaches, Sabrina Edwards-Pereira & Fiona Edwards, assisted by Junior European Champion 2022 & 2023 Jason Edwards-Pereira.
What is a PBC UK Festival?
PBC UK Festivals are designed for ALL ability levels. You enter as an individual, are organised to play with a different partner (male or female) and the organiser will balance the matches so that you play with those of similar ability level to yourself. If you wish to play with the same partner throughout, or for part of the day that's absolutely fine. it's a great way to socialise and meet players from all around the country as well as practise with particular partners in a friendly but competitive environment. Players are able to decide when they wish to play or take breaks during the event. No scores will be recorded at the adult fun event, we just want you to be able to play as much as possible!
Junior Competition
We invite junior players of all abilities (age 12-18 years) from around the UK to this central venue of Telford for a fun competition in the summer holidays. There are currently so few junior events in the UK that we want to organise events to help support the growth of pickleball for young people. This is designed as a social event for the juniors to meet fellow young picklers just as much as experiencing the competition. We hope you will bring your juniors and come and play yourselves at the same time!
Spaces for the day are limited to 48 participants
