Grab Your Paddles: Where to Find Pickleball Courts in Rochester

Pickleball is all the rage right now. I still have never played... oops. If you have also never played and want to try it out or you're a pickleball lover, I've got all of the different places where you can play a game in Rochester, Minnesota.

I'm honestly a little surprised I haven't picked up a pickleball paddle yet because my husband and I play tennis and my parents are absolutely obsessed with pickleball. So the fact that they haven't dragged us to a court is kind of crazy.

The Rochester Area Pickleball Association does offer classes but I don't see and upcoming classes just yet. They did have two classes in June, though, so I would expect a couple in July as well.

Honestly, wherever there are tennis courts you can play pickleball. If you know the rules then it seems pretty simple to do. But that's coming from a non-pickleballer so.
