44 FOUR SEASONS BREEZE | JULY 2016
On June 25 the Four Seasons pickleballers
held their third annual pickleball tournament
and barbecue. A great time was had by all
28 competitors who had fun competing for
bragging rights. Did you know that pickleball is
now the fastest growing sport in America, and
the number one recreational activity at 55 plus
communities throughout the country? Stop by
the courts on Tuesday, Thursday or Saturday
mornings and you might just get hooked on a
fun way to exercise and meet some new friends.
April 26 through May 1 pickleball
hit the big time, when the United States
Pickleball Association held the first U.S.
Open Championship, in Naples, Florida. The
tournament finals were broadcast on NBC
Sports Nation and many of us were able to
watch the first champions of pickleball be
crowned!
