Pickleball By Mike Vazquez, PAC Pickleball Pro a huge hit in Palmas It is an honor to continue the hard work that Bill Daily has dedicated in introducing Pickleball to our community. As the new Pickleball Pro, my only mission is to support the tremendous growth of the sport in Palmas del Mar, through actively molding new players and providing a great platform for their development. Today there are about 4.8 million people worldwide playing pickleball, doubling the numbers from just five years ago. There are already two national professional tournaments, corporate sponsors to help grow the sport and a league called Major League Pickleball. There are over 10,000 places to play in the U.S. and that number continues to grow by about 12 every month. Hotel groups, including Marriott and Hilton, are either converting tennis courts to pickleball courts or building new ones. This lets us know that the sport is here to stay. Celebrities that play – Yes! We are not alone! As pickleball is the top growing sport now being televised, even celebrities are getting in on the action. Celebrities like Bill Gates, Leonardo DiCaprio, Ellen DeGeneres, Michael Phelps, Mathew Perry, George and Amal Clooney, tennis stars Andy Roddick and Andre Agassi are all now playing pickleball. More celebrities are becoming fans of the fastest-growing sport in the world! In Puerto Rico there are already at least nine municipalities that have pickleball courts and/or established pickleball clubs; Caguas, Dorado, Guayama, Guaynabo, San Juan, Gurabo, Lajas, Toa Alta and of course Humacao. There are also many other municipalities that have temporary courts and people can just set up their own courts when they want to play. These clubs will continue to pop up as more people start to play. So far in the Puerto Rico Pickleball Association, there are about 450 registered players, and it is believed there are about 1,000 players playing pickleball around the island so far. Pickleball in Palmas del Mar - Currently we have about 170 consistent players that play on a weekly basis. This number continues to grow week by week as the younger crowds are starting to get into the sport and more tennis players are transitioning to Pickleball. I’m excited to say that I have seen a lot of progress in the Palmas Pickleball Community and many players that have taken the time to drill and practice, are moving up in categories and elevating their pickleball game. We are offering clinics twice a week, private and semi-private lessons and soon we will start implementing an open play concept divided by levels to follow the more traditional type of play pickleball has to offer. s
