Pickleball Courts

The sport with the curious name, “Pickleball” is fast gaining popularity throughout the country.  Pickleball started as a children’s game in the 60’s but is now the go to game for the senior set.  This hybrid of tennis is so popular in fact, New York Times writer Peter Kilborn reports that the Pickleball Association now boast 150,000 players, almost triple 2010 numbers. It’s played on a converted or multi use tennis court with supersized ping-pong paddles and a whiffle ball.
