Another busy week of action has been the scene at the Dubbo Pickleball Centre in Bultje Street.

Amongst the many highlights, Ben Farrelly has surged to an almost unassailable lead with only four rounds remaining in the Open level of the “5 4” series: a competition designed to cater for five players of a like or similar skill level from juniors, opens and masters-aged players of any gender doing battle over 12 rounds.

In what was a big week for Ben, he also partnered with Jason Knight – in his final series as he has now departed for Western Australia – to collect the “Gold Cups” in the Purple level of the weekly BOSS series – the highest standard of competition. He also stamped his authority on Pickleball by surging to the lead in the Open Mixed 5 4 series in a huge week.

In competitive Pickleball last week, Dubbo also hosted players from Orange PCYC with Dubbo hanging on to collect the points in what were three age-designated match ups with Dubbo putting on a dominant performances across the board.

With Pickleball not being Pickleball – unless it also incorporates a range of social and fun activities – the Club were also delighted to host a farewell to Abbey from her workmates, who treated her to the experience of lightness and laughter of this unique sport, with credit to Gabby, Chelsey, and Heather.

The Pickleball Centre, due to its growing numbers, now offers opportunity to run charity functions suitable for all ages, genders, and cultures. This can range from mental health to any other good cause looking for some support.
