Village of Washingtonville - In a beautiful synchronicity....just as I was putting up notice that the Pickleball Courts were almost ready, Mayor Devinko texted me that they are not only READY but people have already been using them this morning. And the court is BEAUTIFUL!
STAY TUNED..... I'll take a ride over there later this afternoon and get some pics and maybe comments. If you decide to go, be sure to bring WATER!
Pickleball is a relatively new sport that has become extremely popular. It has been around for awhile now, ever since 1965 when some friends were on vacation and wanted to play badminton, but did not have the equipment. They improvised, using ping pong paddles and a sort of whiffle ball. After playing around with the net heights, changing it up a little here and there, and developing a set of rules, Pickleball was born.
