Pickleball Rules at the Altis Community

Nestled within our vibrant neighborhood of Altis at Skyline, we're serving up a slice of pickleball paradise on the blufftop. Picture this: winding trails connecting each home, leading you straight to the heart of the action - our pristine pickleball courts. With covered picnic tables inviting you to pack a lunch, watch the game, and cheer on your friends, every day feels like a grand slam.

Why Fans Pick Pickleball
It's the fastest growing sport in America for good reason. And if you've never tried, you're in for a treat-because pickleball is fun, social, and quick to pick up. Simply grab a paddle and start playing. A combination of badminton, tennis, and ping pong; this game uses a lightweight wiffle-like ball and a net that's a mere 34" high. Played either one-on-one or as doubles, the "pickler" serves the ball underhand and diagonally into the opponent's service court. From there, the ball is hit back and forth over the net until it drops. The player/team that makes it to 11 points first wins. That's it! It's really just that easy, and a ton of healthy fun.

Where Pickleball Passion Lives
The pickleball courts are available to anyone in the neighborhood, so you can come socialize with neighbors and grab a fun workout without ever needing to drive your car. Bonus, you don't have to venture out to a court at a busy public facility. And at Altis you're playing with the 55+ crowd that's serious about fun. But at Altis, passion for the sport goes even further…
