All About Pickleburg |
|
Pickleburg.com was created over a decade ago with a singular goal in mind, to promote and grow the game of pickleball in Williamsburg and James City County. Today, we continue to advocate on behalf of ideas and activities that contribute to the growth of the game locally and its positive impact on wellness, fitness, and community.
What We Have Been Up To for the Past Decade
- Sharing news and information about the game, the rules, and the gear.
- Promoting the game via print and digital media, interviews, podcasts, and presentations.
- Encouraging our player community to share their passion for the game with others.
- Engaging with our community leaders, elected representatives and Parks & Recreation leaders/staff.
- Participating in Public Forums exploring the future growth of the game and the projected venue requirements.
- Partnering with vendors and manufacturers to provide equipment support for organizations with limited resources.
- Supporting corporate team building and wellness programming activities.
- Consulting with communities and organizations.
- Providing professional, affordable, game improvement coaching for developing players.
