Making racket sports "approachable" has several benefits, as it encourages wider participation and promotes a healthier lifestyle. Here are some reasons why it's important to make racket sports approachable:
1. Inclusivity: By removing barriers to entry, such as cost and skill level, more people can participate, regardless of their background, age, or fitness level. This fosters a sense of inclusivity and diversity.
2. Confidence Building: Participation in racket sports can boost self-confidence as people learn and progress in the sport. This newfound confidence can extend to other areas of life.
3. Fun and Recreation: Ultimately, making racket sports approachable is about ensuring that people have opportunities to enjoy themselves, have fun, and engage in a recreational activity that brings joy to their lives.
Shout out to Jack and Jill of America, Inc. for understanding this and making it available throughout their network.
On Saturday we hosted Jack and Jill of America, Inc. and it was a blast. Introducing a group of youth to the sport of pickleball in a fun approachable way was amazing. Looking forward to our next Jack and Jill event!!!!
