Now this is something you don't see or hear of very often: Two hundred kids in a high school pickleball tournament!
Southern Columbia High School is located in Franklin Township (Population 600) of Columbia County, Pennsylvania, very much in the Heart of The Keystone State.
It's obvious from the 1:53 video included in this news story the finalists in this tournament were playing with a lot of skill and passion. If the number of kids sitting in the bleachers is any indicator, pickleball appears to be very popular in this unlikely nook of Pennsylvania.
The participation of 200 students represents half of SCHS's enrollment of 407 students.
Oh, and by the way, somebody needs to help these kids get real nets for their next tournament!
