Welcome to Sydney's Northern Beaches Pickleball Association!


The Northern Beaches Pickleball Association is a non-profit association in Sydney which is run by volunteers. Our aim is to provide a fun and friendly environment in which to promote the game of pickleball on the Northern Beaches of Sydney, NSW, Australia. We have over 180 members from Palm Beach to Manly and all over Sydney and surrounds, making us the largest pickleball club in Sydney and NSW. Players of all ages and experience are welcome to join us.

Interstate and overseas visitors are most welcome, but please book a spot through Meetup or contact us. If you can spare the time, please join us for coffee and a chat after the sessions.


First Timer Introductory Sessions


Why not join one of our regular ‘first-timer, never played before introductory beginner pickleball sessions’? No racquet sports experience is required. It’s simple and easy to learn – and you’ll be playing in minutes!

You will be most welcome there, as are players from other Sydney venues and interstate and overseas visitors welcomed by us. The social aspect of pickleball is as important as the physical benefits!
