Sign up for Summer Kids Pickleball Clinics.
Located within Superdome Sports at 21-05 Morlot Avenue in Fair Lawn, New Jersey, Montclair Pickleball’s summer clinics provide an ideal environment for kids to learn and grow their pickleball skills. The 9-week sessions are structured to ensure children have a blast while learning from high-level coaches who are passionate about sharing their love for the game.
Beginner Clinics for Young Players
For children aged 9-13, beginner clinics run on Tuesdays from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm. These sessions are perfect for first-timers or those just starting to explore pickleball. Coaches focus on introducing foundational skills such as basic shots—including dinks, volleys, serves, returns, and drives—as well as teaching essential rules, scoring, and strategies.
Kids will engage in structured drills, competitive games, and activities that develop hand-eye coordination and general athleticism. Coaches emphasize consistency, teamwork, and good sportsmanship, helping children build confidence both on and off the court.
Intermediate Clinics for Growing Players
Young players who have already mastered the basics can advance their skills with Kids Intermediate Clinics, held on Wednesdays from 5:00 pm to 6:00 pm. This clinic is designed to refine and improve shots, including drops, resets, and serves, as well as to enhance overall gameplay strategies. Players will learn proper shot selection, court positioning, and footwork, becoming more competitive and confident athletes.
Participants in the intermediate program can expect to play complete matches and gain an understanding of the tactical aspects of pickleball, which makes the sport exciting and rewarding. Like the beginner clinics, these sessions are carefully designed to emphasize sportsmanship and build athletic skill in a supportive, enjoyable environment.
