Paddle

Paddle tennis, aka platform tennis, is a very social sport known for camaraderie and good sportsmanship. It is an easy sport for players of all ages and skill levels to learn and enjoy and is an excellent sport for families to play together.

Programs

At the Lake Club, our Paddle program is one of the largest and most active in Fairfield County with opportunities for Juniors, Women and Men for instructional, recreational, and competitive intra-club and interclub play. As a result, our five courts are busy most nights with social, clinic and in-house play.
