Pickleball—America’s Favorite New Sport
Frill Seekers Gifts and Personalized Fabulous Finds
Surely, you’ve heard that pickleball is considered one of the fastest-growing sports in the U.S. It’s also become the most popular sport. Due to the soaring popularity of this decades-old game, many Destin and 30A neighborhoods, and parks and recreation departments are adding pickleball to their sports programming.
Pickleball is a paddle sport that combines elements of tennis, badminton and ping-pong using a paddle and plastic ball with holes, appropriate for players of all ages and skill levels. Pro Tip: “If you were decent at tennis, you’ll be able to master the pickleball game quickly. If you didn’t play tennis, not to worry, pickleball is quite easy to pick up,” said Frill Seekers Gifts owner, Heidi LoCicero. “In fact, we had so many clients joining the sport, we expanded our offerings to include fun pickleball shatterproof cups, game towels, shirts, sweatshirts and festive notepads with fun pickleball themed sayings.”
Consider yourself warned, the sport, “highly contagious!”
Pickleball rules are so similar to ping-pong, practically anyone can learn how to play the game. A pickleball court is smaller than a tennis court, gameplay allows players to be close enough to one another that they chat over the net. So, if you’re looking to bond with your family or have an outing with friends, pickleball makes it easy to do just that while also giving you the ability to fit in a fun workout.
To purchase fun pickleball-themed gifts, visit Frill Seekers Gifts in City Market Bayside in Destin or shop online at FrillSeekersGifts.com. Free gift wrapping, too! Visit the store Monday-Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. and on Saturdays from 10 a.m.-2 p.m.
