Loco Pickelball ~ Lowdham Members Ladies Night

LLadies' Night at Lowdham
What a night! Fabulous company, flowing drinks, tasty bites, and music that had toes tapping (and maybe even a few hips shaking). But of course, the real star of the evening? Three glorious hours of Pickleball mayhem — complete with laughter, questionable shots, surprise winners, and a whole lot of competitive spirit disguised as “just for fun.”

Who knew smashing a wiffle ball around could be this glamorous?

Loco Pickelball ~ First Team Match

A Proud Milestone for LOCO Pickleball!
Today marked a special moment in LOCO Pickleball’s journey, as eight of our players took part in our very first friendly team match against the well-established Caunton Picklers.

With energy, determination, and outstanding sportsmanship, our team gave it everything — and secured a brilliant 36–12 victory! Not bad at all for a club that’s only 6 months old still finding its feet!

A huge round of applause to our fantastic team: Hari, Helen, Carl, Pippa, John, Kevin, Julie, and Cath. You all played superbly, and we couldn’t be prouder. And let’s be honest — with coaches like ours, was there ever any doubt? 😉

Here’s to many more matches, new friendships, and memorable wins on the court. 🏆
