WEST MICHIGAN — Have you noticed pickleball courts popping up everywhere lately?
If you haven’t played, trust me – you want to get to a court. Pickleball is easy to learn, surprisingly addictive, and way more fun that it has any right to be. Once you try it, you’ll probaly wonder why you didn’t start sooner.
People of all ages can play and enjoy, and it even makes for a great date night.
West Michigan is leaning in to pickleball’s mega popularity (it’s like more popular than yoga pants or dog photos). So lace up those sneakers, grab a paddle and let the dinking begin!
