2025 Upper Midwest

We got a late start this morning but made it to the E.H. Young Riverfront Pickleball Courts just in time for some fun. The courts were pretty quiet at midmorning, so we warmed up with a dink game and a round of singles.

Soon after, Sandra and Paul from San Diego wrapped up their match and invited us to play. They were right at our level—competitive, friendly, and a blast to play with!

Before we packed up, Beth noticed a group of three and asked if they needed a fourth. They were waiting on someone, but kindly let her jump in. Turns out, they were new to the game and using indoor balls, so Beth handed them an outdoor one and gave a quick crash course—scoring, kitchen rules, and serves. They picked it up fast—no surprise since Pebe’s a former Division I tennis champ, her dad Jim has a solid game, and Josh held his own too.

We wrapped up with one more singles game. Hats off to Don—your shot placement is really improving, and your game is leveling up! 👏🏽🎾💪🏽
