Pickleball Lessons & Drop-in Information
Currently, there are no dedicated pickleball courts in the Town of Wellesley. Pickleball court lines have been added to select tennis and basketball courts in the community.. Pickleball sounds can be disturbing in densely populated areas of the community. We encourage all players to be sensitive to neighbors living near these courts.
