It's been called a combination of tennis, ping-pong, and badminton, and it's the latest craze to hit the scene! Pickleball is the newest activity you will want to TRY, and what better way than on a court with your WISE friends and colleagues?
Don't know anything about pickleball? Check this out:
- It is a sport that combines many elements of tennis, badminton, and ping-pong.
- Can be played both indoors or outdoors on a badminton-sized court and a slightly modified tennis net.
- Played with a paddle and a plastic ball with holes.

This is as easy as it gets. Seriously.
We are gathering on the courts for what promises to be a beautiful Saturday in January. Don't miss out on the fun! Who knows? You might even find a new sport to love. We KNOW you'll love playing with your WISE friends!
Don't get pickled* - come TRY pickleball![FUN PICKLEBALL FACT: The court where the championship match in a pickleball tournament is played is called the "Pickledome." No kidding.]
