SOUTH BEND, Ind. - It’s social, it’s intergenerational, and it’s no wonder it’s the fastest growing sport in the nation.
ABC57's Jackie Bauer learned what all the “racket” was about with the Michiana Pickleball Club, as they broke in eight new outdoor courts at South Bend’s Boehm Park with the Ray Comer Memorial Tournament and naming the courts in his honor.
The hope is the court will help bring a love for the game for even more people across South Bend.
They will be using the courts to host a league and classes for beginners. More information can be found on their website linked below:
