Value: €41,180

Contractor: Edel sport doo.

The project was co-financed by the Split-Dalmatia County in the amount of €10,000.00.

Pickleball is played with smaller rackets and a special plastic ball, so less strength is needed for basic shots. It is also played on a smaller court. All this makes it very suitable for a wide age group, so it can be played by both children and the elderly, and it is still very interesting for strategic competition, so it is also interesting for tennis players, badminton, padel, and table tennis players. Incidentally, this is a sport that has experienced expansion in the last few years, primarily in America, and then in Europe.
