Thanks to everyone who participated in our pickleball event – it was a great day!

Last week, along with our team from Freedom Therapies, we hosted a fun pickleball training session followed by a “round-robin” style tournament with the West Reading Pickleball Association. We had a great time interacting with patients, learning more about the sport, and enjoying time on the courts!

We hope to see you out there again soon!
