Default ... Pickleball?

Besides the Meredith Community Center with its' three pickleball courts, and the Laconia Communty Center with two pickleball courts; are there any other lakes region towns that play pickleball?

http://www.newhampshire.sportsvite.c...rts/Pickleball is a big long list of NH pickleball venues.

Probably, pickleball seems to be way more popular than playing indoor winter tennis in the lakes region because these two local town recreation centers have made it very inexpensive to play.....plus it is probably much easier to get good fast with pickleball than with tennis. Tennis can be a difficult sport to get started in, and can seem pretty expensive at the local tennis club which is not really an apples to apples comparision....while pickleball is pretty reasonably priced to play.

What the Town of Meredith really needs and wants is an indoor-year round tennis facility with about six indoor courts, all air-conditioned and heated, and with a red clay court surface. Time to contact your Meredith town selectmen.......Meredith indoor tennis.....ace that....ho-ho-ho!

And....the Meredith Community Center has a super-terrific indoor gym that's big enough for three pickleball courts. It also has some type of synthetic plastic floor that does not attract black marks from black rubber sneaker soles as does a hardwood floor, and it has a number of translucent windows placed up high that work very well to allow a lot of diffused natural sunlight into the large gym.

Plus, when the temps outside are in the deep freeze, the pickleball gym is a good warm spot to go chill out.
