Nanjing International Pickleball Association
November 30, 2024
Nanjing International School
Event Overview
One exciting initiative at Nanjing International School (NIS) is the Nanjing International Pickleball Association (NIPBA), which provides teachers a lively way to unwind, stay active, and learn a new sport. Open to all skill levels, faculty gather every Tuesday at 4:16 PM for weekly sessions. Building on this enthusiasm, we hosted a successful internal tournament last spring and organized an inter-school teachers' tournament to promote skill refinement and foster connections among local international schools.
To expand the program to include students, we will hold a pickleball clinic for teachers on November 30th, focusing on refining techniques and effective coaching strategies. This will prepare educators to introduce the sport to their students, laying the foundation for a vibrant student program that promotes physical activity.
Our ultimate vision is that one of the schools will host an ACAMIS invitational pickleball tournament for students fostering friendly competition and strengthening inter-school connections. Join us in Nanjing for the Pickleball Clinic on November 30th, 2024!
