Marty
Beyond the Battle: Marty's Pickleball Journey
For Marty, pickleball has been more than a game—it’s been a lifeline through her battle with cancer. Even during grueling treatments, she found strength, laughter, and community on the courts at Ronnie Grandison Sports Academy.
“I’m still smiling, still laughing, and still playing pickleball,” Marty says. “This community keeps me coming back.”

Gilbert
Finding Balance Through Pickleball: Gilbert’s Story
When Gilbert retired after 35 years in his career, he went looking for a healthy activity. What he discovered in pickleball was more than just exercise—it became a source of energy for his body, mind, and soul.
“Pickleball challenges me physically, keeps my mind sharp, and lifts my spirit,” Gilbert says. “I’ve met so many friendly people who just want to have fun—it’s the perfect balance.”

Edsel
From Beginner to Community Player: Edsel’s Pickleball Story
Two years ago, Edsel showed up at a park with no paddle, no shoes, and no idea how to play pickleball. Today, he’s 20 pounds lighter, sharper in mind, and surrounded by a community that feels like family at Ronnie Grandison Sports Academy.
“The community here is amazing. Everyone smiles, and I feel like I can talk to anyone. For me, it’s not about the court—it’s about the people.”
