Solving Pickleball Problems 2.0

Pickleball has become one of the fastest growing sports in the country and many park and recreation departments have implemented pickleball programs in their cities. However, recreation professionals may lack the knowledge and understanding of the game needed to fully grow the sport in their communities and to address emerging problem behaviors as the program expands. This workshop will provide tangible strategies for identifying and correcting common problem behaviors with open pickleball play, identify strategies and solutions for adding or creating more pickleball courts, and provide strategies for growing existing pickleball programs. 

Learning Objectives:

  1. Identify and correct a variety of common problem behaviors found in open pickleball play. 
  2. Understand multiple strategies for adding or creating pickleball courts in their community. 
  3. Take away multiple strategies to grow the number and variety of pickleball offerings in their community.
