It has been an amazing way for me and all my friends to connect. We get competitive, we get angry, but most of all we learn to persevere, which is an important skill not just on the court but in life. Pickleball has made me more active, more understanding, and an all-around better person. Every time I step on the court I am motivated to play better and go harder than I did the last time. ALL IN Youth provided me and my friends with all the equipment necessary to play and amazing coaches to go with it.

I was also scared to talk with the people around me. I didn\u2019t know many of the students, and I was scared to speak with the adults. I was in good physical shape from playing basketball and I realized that I was enjoying my newfound community and was making friends with both students and adults. I feel like we\u2019re becoming a big family, especially with ALL IN Coach Renee, who is very much helping me look towards my future. Playing pickleball through ALL IN is helping me stay in better shape and it\u2019s something I look forward to.<\/p>\n<p>Pickleball has helped me develop some self-control over my anger and frustration and also helped me not take myself (and others) too seriously. With Coach Renee\u2019s gentle prodding, I have started to consider many different career options.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_testimonial][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Everything that ALL IN Youth Pickleball is doing is incredible.
