Atlanta is currently the worst major city in America for places to play pickleball. My goal is to change that.

A new players association has formed within pro pickleball.
Founding members include Tina Pisnik (president), Dekel Bar, Jessie Irvine, Augie Ge, Collin Johns, Jay Devilliers and Gabe Tardio.
“This is about players working together to advance our sport and raise it to the next level — for athletes, fans, and the game itself," said Pisnik.

Now that’s it’s July and the city only created 6 of 16 dedicated courts, can we call it what it is? A failure.
“In total, the pilot will include 16 dedicated courts and 33 shared tennis/pickleball courts that’s will be completed in phases through July 2024.”
That’s 49.
Additionally @ATLParksandRec has been hosting meetings regularly to expand the program.

Pickleball players and tennis players need to stop this feud! We all know pickleball is better 😂
The mental health aspect is a huge benefit of pickleball that city officials don’t understand. @andreforatlanta @DougShipmanATL @jasonsdozier @ByronAmos @AmirForATL @cutlerparks
