Program Calendar

Learn to play pickleball no matter your physical or cognitive abilities. Using adaptive equipment, friendly and knowledgeable volunteers, and staff we will break the game down so you can learn to play. We will then work on skills progression.

Pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in America. It is played on half of a tennis court using a wiffleball-type ball and using a lightweight paddle. We have sport wheelchairs available for those who use wheelchairs or for those who with balance issues or who are a fall risk. This is a very fun and social sport and is easy to learn.

This program is funded by an adaptive sports grant through the Veterans Administration and the Massachusetts Statewide Head Injury Program.
 
Please give us a call to sign up at 413-584-2052. 
 
We are piloting this new program, so all are welcome based on available space. Priority is given to U.S. military veterans and people with brain injuries. 
 
Equipment provided.
 
Cost: No charge for Veterans. All others: $5 per session.

Pre-register and join us in Natick to check out a wide variety of cycles that can accommodate riders of all abilities with stable recumbent tricycles, tandem cycles, hand-pedaled cycles, and more. Then go for a ride on the new Cochituate Rail Trail. 

Recumbent trikes offer a neutral, comfortable body position, so they are perfect for anyone who wants to get some non-weight-bearing exercise without having to balance a two-wheel bike or for those who are uncomfortable on a two-wheel bike for any reason. We can set up trikes for one-sided control.

Equipment and cycles provided. Helmets are required for all riders. You can bring your own or borrow one of ours.

Sign up for a one hour time slot within the program time of 10 AM-3 PM.

Program Cost: No charge
