Hot Springs Village has you covered with Tennis, Pickleball, Bocce Ball, Softball and Lawn Bowling.
Bocce Ball
| The Bocce Ball courts are located across from the Coronado Community Center. The game of skill and concentration, rather than physical stamina, is fun and easy to learn. It is played on a flat surface (similar to a bowling lane) with the object to get game balls as close as possible to the target ball (pallino). All equipment is provided by the Village Bocce Ball Club. |
Softball
| The Senior Softball League is open to men 50 years or older and women 35 years and older. The league plays two sessions each year: Spring Apr-Jun and Fall Aug-Nov. The games are played on Thursday mornings at the Boys & Girls Club field off HWY 7. |
Lawn Bowling
| The Village Green Bowls Club is active all year. Lawn bowling is a game with moderate exercise. The game is played on a green with a target ball and is similar to regular bowling. However, the balls weigh only two to three pounds and are less strenuous on the legs and back. The object of the game is to get balls near the target ball. The balls are biased so they are rolled left to right or right to left making lawn bowling a challenge. |
| Pickleball offers some serious opportunities for exercise, team play and a whole lot of fun. What exactly is Pickleball, you may ask? Similar to tennis, Pickleball is a fun sport for all ages and all levels of athletic ability. It is played by two or four players on a badminton-size court, with a slightly modified tennis net, using a perforated plastic ball and wood or composite paddles. |
Tennis
| The Coronado Tennis Center is a 13-court complex with USPTA Elite Tennis Professional, lounge and pavilion. Ten of the courts are clay and the remaining three are hard surface. The Hot Springs Village Tennis Association, with nearly 400 members, offers league play at all levels including mixed leagues, womens and mens doubles, junior tennis and USTA adult leagues are encouraged here. |
Croquet
| Our Croquet Lawn is an artificial turf located at 200 DeSoto Park Lane, next to the Bocce Ball courts. In croquet, a player uses a mallet to hit a ball through hoop-shaped wickets. The sport is great for those looking for a game that is easy on the joints and requires moderate physical activity.
Croquet requires only one basic skill, that of propelling a ball with a degree of accuracy. The principal difference between croquet and most other outdoor sports in that croquet requires delicacy and skill, rather than speed or strength. It also requires tactical ability and forward planning rather than quick reflexes. |
