The Mackay Indoor Pickleball Club caters to the community’s need for an active, friendly, and social sporting environment for all age groups. To celebrate World Pickleball Day, the club gathered for a group photo in their new shirts, followed by a social event at Harrup Park Country Club.
The club welcomes everyone to its indoor courts, where committee members ensure a warm and inviting atmosphere. Players proudly wear their club shirts, especially during post-game meet-ups for coffee or lunch at Harrup Park Cricket Club after the weekly Monday and Thursday sessions.
A key advantage of the Mackay Indoor Pickleball Club is its indoor facilities, guaranteeing play regardless of weather conditions. With Mackay’s hot summers, indoor play allows members to exercise comfortably. The club currently hosts games at Pioneer High School on Sunday mornings from 9:30–11:30 am, Mackay Basketball Stadium on Monday and Thursday mornings from 9:30–11:30 am, and PCYC on Tuesday evenings from 5:30–7:30 pm. With three venues, there are ample opportunities for members to play at their convenience.
It’s also an affordable fitness opportunity, individuals can join the club as social members for just $25 per year. Each session costs only $8 for members and $10 for visitors, offering two hours of play. Beginners are warmly welcomed, with the club providing mentoring and paddles until they’re ready to buy their own equipment. Senior players are encouraged to take breaks between games, ensuring everyone enjoys a comfortable experience.
Founded in 2021, the club has grown to over 100 members and regularly hosts visiting players from other clubs around Australia.
The Mackay Indoor Pickleball Club is perfect for those seeking an affordable, fun way to stay active and meet new people. With a flexible schedule, multiple venues, and a welcoming community, it’s a great way to get involved in one of the world’s fastest-growing sports.
New players are always welcome, so come along and give pickleball a try!
