      • The pala
      • The chistera

After learning the rules of the game, you will experience life as a pelota player through workshops and fun matches. All this in a joyful and friendly atmosphere. Nicolas will also show you some exceptional and unique trinquets (indoor pelota courts).

    Very interesting! The instructor (I've forgotten his name...) was very friendly and knowledgeable. We learned a lot! And thank you to the two players! (P. Valla's group of 18)
