The Township of Scugog offers a variety of drop-in activities such as skating, swimming, walking, and pickleball.

Pickleball

Pickleball is a fun sport that combines many elements of tennis, badminton and ping-pong. It is played on a badminton-sized court with a slightly modified tennis net, a paddle and a plastic ball with holes. In partnership with the North Durham Pickleball Club, the recreation staff offer a drop-in program from September to May each year at the Scugog Community Recreation Centre as well as a registered Learn to Play program for participants new to the sport.

Schedule and Cancellations

You can view the pickleball drop-in schedule in our Leisure and Activity Guide. Occasionally the pickleball program will be cancelled due to facility events and maintenance. When a make up day is added, it will always follow the Monday schedule of timeslots. View the list of cancellation dates below.
