Come & try Pickleball on Anzac day at Pettigrew Green Arena 10am

Jackie from Taradale

Come & try the fastest growing sport in the USA on Anzac day at 10 am (till 12pm) at the Pettigrew green Arena in Taradale. On your day off, come along & have some fun and meet new people & have a go. All you need is court shoes, everything else is supplied. 1st day is Free ($5 there after)- This is low impact, easy to learn, & heaps of FUN (hence it is growing so fast in the USA it is astounding). I will warn you, this sport is very ADDICTIVE, once you play you will want to play as much as you can. Hope to see you there -- our FB page is "Pickleball Hawkes Bay" - go there for more information and contact numbers -

Robots are stepping into repetitive roles in factories, plants and warehouses. AI is taking care of the admin tasks that once filled many mid-level office jobs.
