Fun, friendly pickleball coaching for kids, teens & adults across Brighton & Hove — with qualified PPR coach Lucy Grant.
I'm passionate about sports and believe every child should have the opportunity to learn, play and grow. Pickleball is the perfect sport for that — it's fast, fun, and brilliantly accessible.
I originally qualified as a Pickleball coach to teach children with SEN through my charity Tennis SOCKS, which provides tennis and pickleball coaching for children with extra needs. Since then I've expanded to coaching adults and children all across Brighton & Hove.
For children, pickleball builds coordination, social skills and confidence — all while having a brilliant time with their pickleball friends. It really is the most fun you can have with a paddle!
