Hearts In Action at Get Pickld
NDIS Group Activity in Logan: Social Pickleball
Try something new, get out into the community and enjoy a social game of pickleball with Hearts In Action.
Our support workers can help you get to Get Pickld in Meadowbrook, settle in and take part at your own pace. No experience is needed, equipment is provided and support is there when you need it.
Creating Connection Through Pickleball
Get Pickld and Hearts In Action work together to make the sessions possible, combining an inclusive place to play with the support participants need to take part comfortably and confidently.
Together, we run the sessions as an NDIS group activity in Logan, giving participants another way to get out into the community, meet people and take part in something enjoyable.
Pickleball is simple to learn and easy to adapt. The court is smaller than a tennis court, the serve is underhand and new players can learn the basics quickly.
You do not need to be experienced or particularly sporty. Your support worker can help you get comfortable, learn the game and take part in a way that suits you.
Free To Play.
Providing that support is how we cover the court hire. It is our way of giving something back to the community in collaboration with Russel from Get Pickld.
Hearts In Action is a registered NDIS provider in Logan, and Get Pickld is a short drive from Beenleigh, Springwood and other suburbs across Logan City.
The pickleball
Court hire, paddles and balls are paid for by Hearts In Action. There is nothing to pay at Get Pickld.
Your support worker
Hearts In Action pays for the court hire and the gear, so the pickleball itself costs you nothing. The only cost is your regular community access support: the hours your Hearts In Action support worker spends with you getting there, taking part and getting home.

Play Your Way
Everyone takes part differently.
The courts at Get Pickld are indoor and flat, and pickleball can be played standing or from a wheelchair. Under wheelchair pickleball rules, the ball is allowed to bounce twice before being returned.
You may want to play a full game, take regular breaks or spend some time watching before joining in. Your support worker can help you participate in the way that feels right for you.
Paddles and balls are provided, so you do not need to buy equipment before trying the game.
If you are unsure whether pickleball will suit you, call 07 2812 2406. We can talk through your support needs before your first session.
Your First Session
You do not need to know the rules before you arrive. We will help you get comfortable, show you how the game works and support you to take part at your own pace.
Arrive and settle in
Your Hearts In Action support worker in Logan can help you get to Get Pickld, meet the group and get familiar with the venue before you start.
Learn the basics
If pickleball is new to you, we will show you how to hold the paddle, serve, score and start a rally. If you already play, you can get straight into a game.
Play at your pace
Games are social and flexible. You can play standing or seated, take a break when you need one and join back in when you are ready.
Stay and connect
The cafe is beside the courts, giving everyone a chance to sit down, have a drink and spend time together after a game.
Pickleball Questions
Do I need to have played pickleball before?
No. Most people arrive without knowing the rules or having held a paddle. We show you the basics and get you into a game at a pace that feels comfortable.
What should I wear and bring?
Comfortable clothes you can move in, closed shoes with good grip and a water bottle. Paddles and balls are provided.
Can I play from a wheelchair?
Yes. The courts are indoor and flat, and under wheelchair pickleball rules the ball can bounce twice before you return it. We adjust the pace of the game around you.
What does it cost?
Nothing for the pickleball. Hearts In Action pays for the court hire, paddles and balls. The only cost is your regular community access support, which is the time your Hearts In Action support worker spends with you. That support is how we are able to cover the courts and give back to the community.
Do we play in a group?
Yes. Pickleball is our NDIS group activity in Logan, and it runs through community access support. You come along with your Hearts In Action support worker, play alongside other participants and use your regular support hours to take part.
Can a family member or friend come with me?
Yes. One family member or friend can join you when you attend with your Hearts In Action support worker.
Do I need to be a Hearts In Action participant?
Yes. Hearts In Action pays for the court hire and the gear, and we do that by providing the support on the day. It is our way of giving something back to the community, so you attend with one of our support workers as part of your community access support. If you are not with us yet, call 07 2812 2406 and we will talk through the support you are looking for and how to get started.
