Sustainability and Pickleball!

My Name is Darren Anderson and I am a University Business Professor and NCCP certified Pickleball instructor in the Victoria, BC area.  

I am teaching youth pickleball in elementary schools and I plan to offer $10 adult pickleball lessons at the new Pickleball courts at Topaz Park in Victoria when they open this spring (2026).  I also plan to organize $10 Moneyball mini tournaments at Topaz Park.  Click on this link to find out more.  Please email me at darren.anderson1000@gmail.com to schedule a pickleball lesson.

I am interested in getting involved in any Sustainability or Pickleball projects so please email me if you know of any interesting projects.  Pickleball courts use 1/4 the land of tennis courts and 8 times higher capacity given tennis players tend to play singles (2 players) and pickleball is typically doubles (16 players).
