Youth pickleball
in New Milford.

New Milford is small but tightly organized — three elementary schools, a strong PTA culture, and families who'd fill an after-school pickleball roster if it existed in town. We're a 20-minute drive south in Fort Lee for camp, and we'd happily run a New Milford after-school program if the schools want us in.

  • 20 min from New Milford
  • Grades 2–6, by skill level
  • All equipment included
  • Built by a 13+ year educator

Why New Milford kids play with us

At any of New Milford's elementary buildings, the structure already exists — what's missing is a coach with the equipment, curriculum, and certification. That's literally what we bring. Parent-organizer or PTA intros are how we get from "interested" to first session.

For New Milford parents & PTAs

Bring Little Picklers
to a New Milford school.

There's no Little Picklers program in a New Milford school yet — but that's exactly what we're working to change. The next schools we go into are the ones where one parent picks up the phone.

What we bring

  • • All paddles, balls, and portable nets
  • • A 13+ year educator running the curriculum
  • • Grades 2–6 lesson plans, ready to run
  • • General liability insurance
  • • Registration, payment, and parent comms

What we need from your school

  • • A gym or multi-purpose room
  • • A time slot — after-school, PE block, or weekend
  • • An intro to the principal or PTA president
  • • A spot on the parent newsletter when we launch

No budget line. No staff time. No equipment storage.

We're still building out the standard playbook — we'll shape the format around what works for your school, whether that's an after-school session, a PE enrichment block, or a weekend clinic.

New Milford parent questions

How far is summer camp from New Milford?
About 20 minutes south via River Road or Route 4.
Could Little Picklers run after-school at a New Milford school?
Yes — that's exactly what we're trying to make happen across Bergen County. A PTA or principal introduction is the fastest path.
Are equipment costs extra?
No. Every paddle, ball, and drill setup is included — for camp and for any school-based program we run.
