For those unfamiliar with Pickleball it is the fastest growing sport in the U.S.  It's basically miniaturized tennis and can be played in both singles and doubles format like tennis.  Instead of a racket Pickleballers use paddles and the ball is a multi-holed plastic "Whiffle Ball".  Surprise, AZ is considered the "Pickleball Capital of the World" now.  It is a sport that is attractive to all age levels and capabilities. Go to the official Pickleball site for more information.
