Vestiaire, Triva et Luis
Vous vous rappelez quâon vous avait promis quelques amĂ©liorations il y a plus dâun an?
On a commencé par les lumiÚres, et maintenant, on a doublé la superficie des vestiaires.
Les vestiaire du bas sont maintenant reservés aux femmes et celui du haut, sur la mezzanine, aux hommes.

Trivia
On se demandait à quel point notre communauté connait son pickleball. Quelques questions pour vous, sans tricher!
D'oĂč le nom pickleball tire t-il son origine? |
En quelle année le pickleball a t-il été inventé? |

Ă propos de Luis
Luis est avec nous comme Ă©quipier, mais il Ă©tudie aussi en droit. Câest un gars sĂ©rieux, impliquĂ© et fiable. On lâaime beaucoup đ«¶
Luis a un petit gabarit, mais quand il saute, ça décolle du sol. Sur un terrain de volley, il ne passe pas inaperçu.
Dans notre derniĂšre sortie dâĂ©quipe, aux arcades, on a appris quâil Ă©tait un spĂ©cialiste du whac-a-mole. Il nous a mĂȘme fait un exposĂ© sur comment tenir la masse de façon optimale.
Il en connait un rayon sur nos raquettes. Posez-lui des question sur notre inventaire, câest un connaisseur.

Luis
Ăa joue!

(1) Le pickleball a Ă©tĂ© inventĂ© en 1965 par Joel Pritchard en vacances, alors quâil sâennuyait avec ses amis.
(2) En aviron, un « pickle boat » est une compĂ©tition oĂč les membres restants sont regroupĂ©s pour former une Ă©quipe. Comme ce nouveau jeu incorporait des Ă©lĂ©ments « restants » de sports similaires, elle a suggĂ©rĂ© pickleball. Attention! En 1968, les Pritchard ont adoptĂ© un nouveau chien et lâont nommĂ© Pickles. Des annĂ©es plus tard, Joel a Ă©tĂ© interviewĂ© sur lâorigine du nom « pickleball » et, en plus de raconter la vraie histoire, il a aussi plaisantĂ© en disant quâils lâavaient nommĂ© dâaprĂšs le chien de la famille.
Do you remember that we promised you some improvements over a year ago?
We started with the lighting, and now weâve doubled the size of the locker rooms.
The downstairs locker rooms are now reserved for women, and the upstairs ones, on the mezzanine, are for men.
Trivia
We were wondering how well our community knows its pickleball. A few questions for youâno cheating!

About Luis
Luis works with us as a team member, but heâs also studying law. Heâs a serious, dedicated, and reliable guy. We like him a lot đ«¶
Luis may be small in stature, but when he jumps, he really gets off the ground. On a volleyball court, he definitely stands out.
During our last team outing at the arcade, we learned heâs a whac-a-mole specialist. He even gave us a breakdown of how to hold the mallet optimally.
He knows our paddles inside out. Ask him questions about our inventoryâhe really knows his stuff.
Letâs play!

(1) Pickleball was invented in 1965 by Joel Pritchard while on vacation, when he got bored with his friends.
(2) In rowing, a âpickle boatâ is a competition where leftover crew members are grouped together to form a team. Since this new game incorporated âleftoverâ elements of similar sports, the name pickleball was suggested. Careful! In 1968, the Pritchards got a new dog and named it Pickles. Years later, Joel was interviewed about the origin of the name âpickleballâ and, in addition to telling the true story, he also joked that it was named after the family dog.
