Did you know that April is National Pickleball Month?
Our latest newsletter is, therefore, a great opportunity to showcase which resorts are best suited to the pickleball fanatics among you. Read on to learn about the various Hilton Grand Vacations properties with pickleball facilities on site.
What is pickleball?
A combination of tennis, badminton and ping-pong, pickleball is the fastest-growing sport in the United States! Pickleball courts are approximately one-quarter the size of a traditional tennis court, and players use small paddles to hit the plastic, wiffle-like ball over the net.
The game is played at a relaxed pace, and its accessibility has made it a hit with all ages around the world. Read our handy article here to get you up to speed on all things pickleball-related and learn more about the rules.
