Serving Health and Performance: How Pickles Is Redefining Pickleball Through Physical Therapy
On a mission to create connections between all types of people and enrich the lives of others through Pickleball, Pickles, located in Hanover, Massachusetts, just outside of Boston, has differentiated themselves from other clubs by partnering with a local physical therapy (PT) clinic to provide in-house rehabilitation and injury prevention services to players. Their facility, all completely indoors, features six tournament sized courts, two dinking practice courts, “The Kitchen,” which serves pre-packaged snacks and beverages including beer/wine, a retail shop, and a player’s recovery lounge which houses the PT. Each of these aspects of the club serve specific purposes which contribute to Pickles’ overall prioritization of member health and enjoyment of the sport.
