I'm not sure if the irony is intentional, but it is sure to upset some insecure KU t-shirt fans. I like it.

Pickle ball is a great game. Wish I lived in the KC area.

If you go, be sure to say hello to Garrett Stutz, a standout player and an even better human being.

They play it in a number of places in Wichita, both competitive and non. My wife plays in Andover 2 to 3 times a week and I believe they have games 4 or 5 days a week. Several of the Wichita Park Board buildings have it as well as one of the sport complexes.

What in the heck is pickleball? I saw about 2 minutes of it on CBSSportsTV the other day, a WSU tennis player was on a team. Is it a social, handicapped doubles tennis thing? Is a pickle thrown at the loser? What gives?

I like the game a lot, but I always see leagues for senior citizens.... anybody know who has the open leagues?

That place looks awesome though.

It's at one of the sports complexes. Maybe the new one in northeast Wichita. I don't know about parks having competitive leagues, but they could.

There is no "pickle", but a kitchen is involved. :smile-new:
