Orlando, Fla. – Tuesday night at the U.S. Tennis Association National Campus in Orlando was all about pickleball.
The Orlando Squeeze attracted more than 650 pickleball fans for its pro-showcase. The event and exhibition match was originally scheduled to take place at the brand-new pickleball courts at Central Winds Park in Winter Springs, but so many people registered that it had to be moved to a larger venue.
The showcase was a chance for people living in Central Florida to get to know the four professional pickleball players on Orlando’s Major League Pickleball (MLP) team and see them play together for the first time. The event was completely free.
