I've even seen a villages sales associate walk a group of potential buyers onto our active tennis court to watch pickleball!
The Villages is Pickleball Paradise

I have a friend who came to the Villages for six weeks as a pickleball instructor. It must be very serious here in the Villages. She is coming from another community here in Florida which has pickleball fever.
