Because pickleball players always take over the majority of courts around where I live, i began to look into the game. I notice some drastic changes between how people organize.

The first thing i noticed was that nearly of the pickleball "clubs" and "memberships" are either free or have a fee of like 30-50 dollars for a year while tennis clubs are much more expensive. The cheapest place around me is $250 for 3 months of club access where you still have to pay for courts. The only comparable is this online league I do that is essentially a season long ladder.

The second thing I noticed is there are a lot more tournaments organized for players of every level. I personally believe this is where these clubs get their money since most cost around $75 and up. This makes it just so much more accessible for people to play not only recreational, but if you are serious about the sport it is easy to find tournaments.

What do you think if tennis organizers adopted this type of organization?
