The Lehi Legacy Center will begin offering 13 hours of weekly indoor pickleball starting Monday, Nov. 2, according to an October 28 report. The new winter schedule will allow members to play five days a week, with play being free for those holding annual passes.
The decision to add the sport follows a request made by Sarie Christiansen, a part-time Legacy Center employee, during a Sept. 8 Lehi City Council meeting. Christiansen suggested that pickleball could build on the positive results already seen from volleyball at the center. Several other residents also voiced similar requests during that September meeting.
The indoor pickleball schedule will include the following hours:
Monday, Tuesday and Thursday: 5 a.m. to 8 a.m.
Wednesday and Friday: 12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
Participants may bring their own equipment to the center.
The Legacy Center offers monthly and annual membership plans for families, couples, and individuals. A single daily visit for adults between the ages of 12 and 59 costs $6. Prospective members can register in person at the front desk or online.
Lehi resident Lyle Swapp stated that he looks forward to making new friends on the court, noting that pickleball is a sport he can still play. Another resident, Sarah Colqui, expressed interest in using the scheduled drop-in hours to play with regulars at the center.
