Pickleball is on the rise, rapidly growing in popularity in recent years. According to the Sports and Fitness Industry Association Participation Report for 2025, there were 19.8 million pickleball players in 2024 in the United States.
The JCC is joining in on the fun, hosting a pickleball event on June 22, 2025, from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. It will take place at Aces Pickleball Bar + Grill, which was recently opened at Factory 52 in Norwood.
The JCC will reserve Aces’ outdoor courts. In case of inclement weather, an email will be sent out approximately 2 hours before the event starts.
