Kiraboshi Development Lessons

What Is “Kiraboshi Development”?

A special development program for junior-age players. Through intensive lessons led by top-level coaches, participants build basic fitness and gain hands-on experience through practice matches.

The program also selects players for overseas tournaments, including in Asia, and offers training camps and travel support with international players, drawing on Pickleball Japan (PJ)’s global network.
