KUCHING: In response to the rising interest in pickleball, Bandar Kuching Member of Parliament, Dr Kelvin Yii Lee Wuen, has introduced the P195 Power Pickle Programme, a free initiative offering structured weekly pickleball lessons throughout this month for youths under the age of 25.
The programme will run across four consecutive Saturdays on June 7, June 14, June 21, and June 28 from 10 am to 12 pm at Pickle Pro Court, Tabuan Laru here. Each session will be led by experienced trainers, with all necessary equipment provided to participants.
“This initiative is part of a broader effort to encourage young people to lead active lifestyles, reduce screen dependency, and foster better social and teamwork skills,” said Dr Yii through a press statement today.
“Physical activity plays an essential role in youth development, and I hope that programmes like this will inspire more young Sarawakians to take up healthy and engaging recreational sports,” he added.
A total of 32 slots are available under this first-come, first-served programme to ensure personalised guidance and attention. Registration can be done via the link provided on Dr Kelvin Yii’s official Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/DrKelvinYii.
“The P195 Power Pickle Programme not only aims to enhance youths’ physical coordination and reflexes, but also seeks to build stronger social bonds among peers and families through shared activities and friendly competition,” he said.
