Ballarat’s Pickleball at its finest
Around the courts, you’ll hear us called the Highlanders. Some members affectionately refer to themselves as CHPCers. Whichever name you use, it’s all about community, competition, and fun. Come play with us today!

What an incredible way to begin 2026!
With over 430 registrations for our Central Highlands Pickleball Classic, our club kicked off the year with outstanding energy and community support. The tournament was a huge success and we received wonderful feedback from players, members, visiting clubs and officials. The atmosphere, sportsmanship and teamwork on display truly showcased what our club is all about.
Looking Ahead
The excitement doesn’t stop there. We have an action packed year ahead, including:
Interclub Rumbles with visiting clubs
Our annual Club Championships
Travelling together to tournaments
And a few exciting announcements we’re keeping under wraps (for now!)
Make sure you stay tuned as we head toward the end of August that’s when things really heat up!
Great News for Members
This week, our committee was thrilled to announce a reduction in club fees.
Thanks to the strong participation at the Classic, the incredible support from our volunteers and the dedication of our hardworking committee, we are now able to offer a $5 entry fee. We hope this makes pickleball even more accessible and encourages even more players to come through our doors.
A huge thank you to all members for supporting Central Highlands your involvement makes everything possible.
Growing the Game
We’re also proud to be growing the next generation of players.
Hannah, Myles, and Dave have been running Tuesday night coaching sessions for children in our community and the response has been fantastic. It’s been wonderful to see so many young players getting involved and loving the game.
If you’re interested in coaching, for children or adults, Hannah is available for both one-on-one and group sessions.
Let’s keep this momentum going, Highlanders.
