Cape Cod Pickleball

After reading this article, we thought there are 11 communities on Cape Cod that offer pickleball.  It actually turns out there are FIFTEEN places to play on the Cape! We were playing pickleball in Sedona, Arizona, one sunny Sunday afternoon this winter when a tourist from Cape Cod stopped by the courts.  He and his daughter were very good players.  While sitting out between games, we talked at length about pickleball on Cape Cod.  The individual told me that pickleball was exploding on the Cape and he fully expected a lot more courts to be built very soon.  Well, judging from this article, he sure was correct!

“It’s just exploding,” said Recreation Director Mary Bradbury. “It transcends ages and skill levels, mobility, flexibility — anybody can play.”
