Healthwaysfit.com: 5 ways pickleball makes you better at life
Posted by Kevin Curley, USAPA eNewsletter Publisher & Social Media Manager
Last year, Healthwaysfit.com put together a nice list of ways pickleball makes you better at life. I’m a big fan of #5, it definitely has its roots in the original idea of the game. But I have a couple of my own to add to the list. If you have additional ways pickleball makes your life better, comment on Facebook.
- Gets you out of the house – Why sit around when you can enjoy a few games at the local pickleball hangout? Staying active helps improve your life, especially if you have cabin fever after a long, cold winter. Not to mention, after being a part-time dad to a 16-month old 50% of the week and running a business out of my home the other part of the days, getting out of the house to see friends is a great break in my day/week.
- Travel to new places – RV Picklers on Facebook is a growing group with new RV spots putting in pickleball courts instead of tennis courts. What a great way to explore the country! Here on the West Michigan lakeshore a new RV location on the Grand River has added private pickleball courts only for residents. It was pretty quiet there last year, but I expect a bunch of RV Picklers to make their journey this summer.
