It was probably just a matter of time before tennis and pickleball clash..."The U.S. Tennis Association says that 10% of courts in America have been taken over or repainted since the pickleball boom began." Here in Toronto, I've seen a few public tennis courts painted with yellow pickleball lines, so it isn't a takeover or a repainting. Doubling a court for tennis and pickleball is a good use of limited resources, but more importantly it provides an opportunity for pickelball to grow and people to be more active. Now, we just need a professional event or a Major League Pickleball franchise in Canada to really accelerate the sport's growth here. #emergingsport #pickleball #sportbusiness
