Pickleball
I played tennis at a young age and due to family/life circumstances I was unable to play consistently as a young adult/adult. Recently I picked up a pickleball paddle for the first time and was immediately hooked. I have been playing at least 4 times a week since. I play in City of Palm Coast events such as tournaments and ladder leagues as well as groups within the community. I love it!
