Introducing a new segment on the Sunday Smash: More Than The Game. ✨

If you were around during COVID, you might remember the wave of good-news channels and accounts that popped up out of nowhere — people just wanting to share something bright in a genuinely dark time. It mattered. It reminded a lot of us that even in hard seasons, there’s still good worth passing along.

We’re all living through our own version of daily struggles, whatever that looks like for each of us. As a business, we feel like we’ve been given a small but real position to encourage and inspire the people who walk through our doors — you. And we think it’s only right to use that position to share what actually makes life a little brighter, together.

So we’re starting More Than The Game — a space in our Sunday Smash newsletter dedicated to real stories from our community. Just the honest, human moments that remind us why this sport, and this community, means something beyond the court.

We’d love to hear from you. Maybe it’s:

• What pickleball means to you
• How you got started, and why you stayed
• A specific moment that meant more than you expected
• A story about what it feels like to be part of a genuinely positive community

Write to us anytime at [email protected] — and if you’d rather stay
anonymous, that’s completely okay too. We just want to hear it, and we’d be honored to share it.

Because sometimes, it really is more than the game.
