Cruzer 1,992 Posted October 13, 2022 It gets folks off their asses and doing something. And some of the women look pretty hot in their skirts - I've no problem with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jerryskids 5,188 Posted October 13, 2022 Our gym has two indoor basketball courts; they are turning one of them into 3x pickleball courts. I'm not sure how permanent that is. Regardless, it's here to stay, older people want it, and they tend to have the money to pay upscale gym memberships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I first learned about it from a hetero couple we know; both are in great shape for our age (55 ish), she has taught fitness classes for decades. They used to play tennis but moved to pickleball a decade ago it seems, and they are big advocates. This is in San Diego, maybe it started earlier there.
