[QUOTE=600th Photo Sq;1755371] Just a FYI :

Tennis = Racket

Pickleball = Paddle

It is confusing at times the tennis courts are next to the pickleball courts in some areas it is kind of cozy an errant tennis ball and the same with a pickleball ball.

We smile and well here is your ball and have a Tennis vs Pickleball attitude grrr.

My question to the Tennis Community when was the last time you had a State Wide Senior Tournament if ever in The Villages vs The Pickleball Community.

Atleast 50% of the Tennis Courts should be configured to Pickleball Courts. $$ Saved

Ever watched the FSU or Florida pickle ball players tourney? That's because they don't have one! Ever watched pro pickle head players at the Open in New York? Not gonna happen! I played my first game last year for grins.....10 minutes I was kicking the butts off of players who have played for years. I have two friends who have no athletic ability at all, showed them how to play and in an hour they were playing just fine. It's a game for the non-athletic masses.....no skills needed!!!
