#3Dprinting recently gave #pickleball some options for a less noisy ball. But at the enthusiast level, can it really add value to the sport? Players who also love their home 3D printers seem to think so. They recently sent us a few examples of how the technology solves numerous on-court problems. Check out the results here: https://lnkd.in/gAMU7Y_j #pickleballplayers #pickleballislife #3dprinted

We need a masked #pickleball vigilante, pronto. Pickleball courts in Allendale Charter Township, Michigan were recently dealt a brutal blow when fences specifically built by a local pickleball group to make the courts safer were destroyed. Local players raised $1,000 to install these fences, built to prevent balls from rolling onto other courts. Sadly, #pickleballcourts nationwide have been under attack in 2024. Learn more about the uptick in pickle-crime here: https://lnkd.in/g6f8fgF6 #pickleballplayers #pickleballislife

A few grassroots initiatives around the country are trying to make #pickleball goes green - finally. Brenda Koga, a pickleball enthusiast and community advocate, is leading the charge in Salt Lake City to ensure that old and unwanted pickleballs don’t end up in landfills. Her new recycling initiative at Fairmont Park has already made waves in the local pickleball scene: https://lnkd.in/g6PshpgZ #pickleballplayers #pickleballislife

The sad narrative which ardent #pickleball fans have endured over the last few years is that their sport just isn't right for TV. Until recently, they didn't have any way to combat that assertion with hard evidence. Streaming views aren't exactly soaring. But behind the scenes, pro leagues have brokered deals with networks and other investors, bringing record streaming, broadcast, & in-person exposure to the masses. New stats prove pickleball viewership is growing: https://lnkd.in/gHgikFwe #propickleball #pickleballplayers #pickleballislife

#pickleball isn’t just dominating tennis courts & reality TV. Now, it's taking over the stage. The fast-paced sport has become a muse for playwrights, resulting in a string of productions that blend humor, heart, and the quirky culture of pickleball into theatrical storylines. Jeff Daniels’ “Pickleball” at B Street Theatre in Sacramento is a prime example. Learn more about the production which just debuted: https://lnkd.in/gKsGFTYN #pickleballplayers #pickleballislife

We don't typically agree with those who want to block the creation of new #pickleballcourts. Usually, our philosophy is: build more in good locations. But it's that last bit that can snag progress. We're looking at you, Florida. The honorary "second home of pickleball" is also the site of protests, legal threats, & more after the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) launched the "Great Outdoors Initiative." The plan proposes significant changes to several state parks across Florida, including the construction of pickleball courts in some state parks. What we've learned thus far: people are very AGAINST building anything in state parks. And we can't blame them.
