YORKTON - No, I don’t like it either. It is hot wearing it, making it harder to breathe. Just a plain annoyance! However, I do like playing Pickleball, so yes, I will wear a mask if that is what it takes to play the game in a public facility. And so a lot are. Since the outdoor courts have shut down and now with the snow; each day more players are coming out.

The first “Learn to Play” clinic last month went well and was filled. Our intermediate course for the 20th of November is full. We do have a couple of spots left in the November 27 “Learn to Play” clinic so do call Anne at 1-306-621-8926 if you are interested.

The Pickleball Yorkton Club had a director’s meeting last week to review our 2nd AGM last month. There was quite a range of topics to cover. One of the more fortunate was to discuss how to organize the spending on several grants Anne and Sheryl were successful in getting for the club. Good work ladies. I know we will NOT have any trouble spending the money with a lot of needs on the table.

Just as an interesting note, Pickleball internationally just held their first draft. The draft board picked 32 participants who had sponsors and then a 4 day tournament was held for the various catagories. In its infancy but steadily making progress to getting international acclaim. It did make some interesting viewing on youtube. Some of those rallies went on forever, amazing athletes.

Okay reality sets back in and I realize that none of us are anywhere near to that level of play. But guess what, we are not trying to, we are out to have fun. And fun we are having. If you haven’t come out yet, feel free to join us and give it a try.

See you on the courts!
