Corporate Dink Retreats
(Pickleball Infused)
Pickleball is the Fastest Growing SPORT in America, according to NPR.com. There are over 4.8 million people addicted to the game and the average age is now 38. The game began in 1965 in Washington State and originally was thought of as a game for the retired 60+ age group. It is now all the rage, and people love the social and physical aspects of the game. Our (2 min) video that explains it all.
Let us teach your staff/managers/vice presidents the simple game of Pickleball as a team building activity during your corporate retreat. We call our retreats “DINK retreats,” because of the very important shot in pickleball called the dink, which you will learn all about. We can teach a group how to score and how to hit the first three- four shots required in pickleball, all in about 60 minutes. It is simple. You may take many years to master the technique, but it is way easier than golf or tennis to conquer. Tournaments start at the 2.5/3.0 level, which makes for some fun weekend activity. This game can be played well into your advanced years, and is great for families and friends. Be as intense as you want….move up as quickly or as slowly as you have time. We are confident that pickleball will bond your team, excite even the most sedentary of employees and prove to be highly addictive. #theaddictionisreal.

We all know the benefits to your team getting exercise; reduced stress, lower fatigue, improve work performance, fewer absences, increased self-confidence and promote leadership skills. Pickleball will do this and more. You laugh. You sweat. You bond with your partner. Your brain is so busy with the fun of the game, you don’t have time to worry about the laundry list of things you need to do back at the office. Give your mind a break, get some good exercise and love the new sport.
