Today is National Pickleball Day! Did you know that 1.5 million Canadians are now playing pickle ball. Here are some of the reasons why.

✅The rackets are lighter and easier to handle than a tennis racket.
✅ According to Canada’s 24-Hour Movement Guidelines, adults need at least 150 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity (MVPA) each week. Pickleball ticks that box
✅ Pickleball challenges are brain with quick movements and reaction times.
✅ Pickleball challenges, your balance and coordination, therefore reducing your risk of falling.
