Goal
Pickleball has taken our community by storm. This sport is causing a lot of buzz from the students. Our students always hear and see the pickleball courts full across the street at the sports complex. The excitement coming from the courts has peaked the kids interest to say the least. Incorporating something new is a great way to energize a program and teach new skills. Parents who play pickleball would be thrilled to know their kids are learning the game they love!
