Join us for fun and exciting pickleball matches and training, located at the pickleball and tennis courts at Gunn High School, but open to all!
Founded by co-founders and Gunn High School students Alex Misra and Arda Turgut, Gunn Pickleball is dedicated to fostering a positive and inclusive atmosphere within the Gunn High School community. In a stressful academic environment, we believe that pickleball—a lightweight, fun, and community-driven sport—provides the perfect outlet for students. Our goal is to offer a space where everyone can unwind, whether through rallying with friends, playing competitive games, or just enjoying the game in a relaxed manner.
We emphasize the importance of building connections and friendships within the club, creating a supportive network for all members. Above all, we prioritize having fun. Whether you're a seasoned player or just looking to try something new, our club is a place to enjoy the sport without pressure. We also recognize the need to balance academic responsibilities with physical activity. Our club encourages an active lifestyle that complements school life, helping students manage stress and stay active.
