Opening Activity: The Pickleball Adventure

To kick off our lesson, we'll start with a little imagination!

Step 1: Pickleball Storytime

Gather around, everyone! Close your eyes for a moment and picture this:

You wake up one sunny morning to see a giant pickle floating in the sky. It’s a friendly pickle, and it speaks! It tells you that it comes from a magical land where everyone plays a sport called Pickleball. This pickle is here to invite you on an adventure to learn how to play. You’ll meet new friends, learn fun skills, and even compete for the title of Pickleball Champion!

Step 2: Warm-Up Movement

Now that we're excited and our imaginations are flowing, let’s get our bodies moving! Stand up and join me for a quick warm-up:

  1. Pickle High-Fives: Pair up with a partner and give them a high-five using your right hand, then your left hand. Let’s see how fast you can go!

  2. Hop Like a Pickle: Everyone hop in place for 10 seconds. Now, stretch your arms out wide, just like the giant pickle!


Transition to Learning

Now that we’re warmed up and buzzing with excitement, let’s head to the court and learn how to play Pickleball!

Remember the adventure with the friendly pickle? Let's make that vision come true by practicing our new skills and having fun together!
