The PATH to PICKLEBALL COURTS IN PINE CITY
Community COURTS PROJECT
Pickleball has been part of the Pine City community for more than a decade. What began around 2008 as a small group of friends playing wherever space could be found—from community education gyms and pole barns to local civic spaces—quickly grew into a strong and welcoming group of players. Over the years, the Pine City Area Pickleball community continued to grow, fueled by the sport’s unique ability to bring people together across generations while providing fun, accessible physical activity. Despite the enthusiasm and growing participation, Pine City remained one of the few communities with an active pickleball community but no dedicated courts.
Recognizing both the need and the opportunity, the Pine City Area Pickleball group formally established Pine City Area Pickleball (PCAP) as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit in November 2024 to begin raising funds and advocating for local courts. With support from the community and a shared belief that pickleball can strengthen connections, improve health, and expand recreational opportunities in Pine City, PCAP is now working in partnership with the city to bring dedicated courts to life.
WE MADE THE FRONT PAGE!
A huge thank you to our friends at the Pine City Pioneer for doing a feature article on our community service project to bring permanent, outdoor pickleball courts to Pine City!
