While attending a family reunion in early 2012, Gary Stocker's brother brought a temporary net, and some wooden paddles and taught the family how to play pickleball.   Gary was immediately hooked and has been playing ever since.  With a background in higher education research through his work as a College Viability Consultant, he knew that college pickleball would be on the rise and built his organization and website - US Collegiate Pickleball.  We discuss the current state of pickleball for youth and college students and what we might see in the coming years for college clubs, teams, and tournament play.Don't forget to subscribe to our newsletter to make sure you don't miss any episodes!More videos here - https://www.youtube.com/@simplypickleball  DISCOUNT CODES $: PCKL Paddes & Balls: SIMPLY15 - 15% off!
