PICKLEBALL FOR YOUR CLUB
Pickleball - Your Next Business Growth Opportunity
Did you know Pickleball is the fastest growing sport* in the country? Here are four reasons you should consider adding Pickleball to your courts:
- Baby-Boomers (age 50 and up) have embraced Pickleball as a fun, athletic, social alternative to tennis that is easier on the knees, hips and elbows. We often hear “I love tennis, but I can’t play anymore, I’m so thankful I found Pickleball.”
- Monetize open courts: Putting in Pickleball courts, or lining a few existing courts for Pickleball play, means you can capitalize on the surge in demand and increase court utilization.
- Different strokes for Pickleball Folks: Offer Pickleball when tennis courts are less busy (morning hours when lessons aren’t taking place or leagues aren’t running) and Pickleball’s key age 50+ demographic is available.
- Pickleball means incremental revenue renting court time and selling paddles, balls, shoes and apparel in your pro shop.
Pickleball has seen tremendous growth in Bergen, Rockland and Orange counties. A current 9-week clinic at Larchmont High School in Westchester has 30 paying customers turning away others just as interested. The market is there – it’s time to grab your share of this growing sport!
