Manage episode 375308535 series 3505823
Pickleball has exploded in popularity over the last few years, but it’s actually been around since the 1960s.

(And where did that name come from?) Sabrina Boyd-Surka talks with pickleball players and organizers, and takes the court herself to find out what all the racket is about. Turns out, pickleball could actually do a lot of good for our city.
